Challenge

Back in the day, humans would actually leave their homes to go rent a physical video copy of movies (what a strange concept, right?). Blockbuster was the leading video rental company in this era. Today, there is only one Blockbuster location left which is located in Bend, Oregon. Today, we are going to ask you to build a video inventory application for this Blockbuster!

Your Video Inventory Management application should manage the following data:

  • Manage customer information:
    • customer id
    • first name
    • last name
    • current list of video rentals (by title)
  • Manage the store's video inventory:
    • video id
    • video title
    • video rating
    • number of copies currently available in-store

Your application should allow:

  • Viewing the current video inventory for the store
  • Viewing a customer's current rented videos
    • customer by id
  • Renting a video out to a customer
    • video by title
    • customer by id
    • IMPORTANT: Customers should not be allowed to have more than 3 videos rented at any given time. Your application should enforce this limitation!
  • Returning a video from a customer
    • video by title
    • customer by id
  • Adding a new customer
    • You should not have an initial list of video rentals assigned to a newly created customer
    • IMPORTANT: Customers should not be able to have the same id!!!
  • Exiting the application

Be sure to give careful consideration into what data structures & data types (classes) you might need to use in your application logic. Also, your application should always keep the CSV data files updated! You need data records to be backed up in a file, in case your application were to crash (and lose data internally).

Your menu should look something like this:

Welcome to Code Platoon Video!
1. View video inventory
2. View customer's rented videos
3. Rent video
4. Return video
5. Add new customer
6. Exit
