I'm trying to figure out how to produce the following code:

• Add person
• Print all people (alphabetically by name)
• Print all people of a designated type (faculty, staff, students)
• Print a faculty member and the students who are studying the program taught by the faculty member
• Print staff members who are designated as advisors and the list of assigned students grouped by program of study.
• Remove a person. Do not remove a faculty member or advisor who has still students who have not yet graduated.
• Retrieve a person

I have not been able to find any help with this project can anyone point me in a good direction?

import java.util.TreeMap;
import java.util.Iterator;

public class Directory
{
    private TreeMap<String, Persons> schoolDirectory;
    private int numberInDirectory;
  
    
    
    public Directory()
    {       
        schoolDirectory = new TreeMap<String, Persons>();
       
    }
                      
    public void addPerson(Persons newPersons)
    {
        schoolDirectory.put(Persons.getKey(), newPersons);
        numberInDirectory++;
    }
       
    public void addPerson(Staff newStaff)
    {
        schoolDirectory.put(newStaff.getKey(), newStaff);
        numberInDirectory++;
    }
             
    public int getNumber()
     {
        return numberInDirectory;
     }


public class Persons
{
    private String firstName, lastName, emailAddress, phoneNumber, ID;
    
    public Persons(String firstName, String lastName, String emailAddress, String phoneNumber, String ID)
    {
        this.firstName = firstName;
        this.lastName = lastName;
        this.emailAddress = emailAddress;
        this.phoneNumber = phoneNumber;
        this.ID = ID;
    }
   
    
    public String getKey(Persons newPersons)
    {
        return lastName + firstName;
    }
}

OK, that's a good start! So what exactly are you stuck on?

(Please post your code in code tags next time - it's much more readable)

I have all of the following information for all sections of this project but no idea how to perform the previously stated steps needed. here is all the code.

        this.lastName = lastName;

        this.phoneNumber = phoneNumber;
        this.ID = ID;
    }
