For your information:

Rent$-$Me Management Company has control of a maximum of ten $(10)$ rental units. Rent$-$Me can:

rent an available unit to a renter, and

release rented units back into the available pool.

The information provided by an owner is:

The owner's last name

The number of bedrooms and bathrooms of the rental unit the owner is allowing the Management Company to administer.

An owner is able to add units for rent as long as the number of units controlled by the Management Company does not exceed their maximum capacity.

The renter can

request a unit for rent, and

request to be released from a unit.

In requesting a unit, the renter provides last name and the number of bedrooms and bathrooms for which he$/$she is searching.

The information from the renter gets put into two $($parallel$)$ arrays:$-$ both arrays are two dimensional. One array contains the names of the renter and the name of the owner $($initially empty$),$ and the other array holds the number of bedrooms and bathrooms the renter would like. The name of the owner will get populated when the unit is rented.

Rent$-$Me representatives will search to see if there are any renters for whom units have not been assigned. They will search for available units using the required parameters. If one is found, the unit will be rented. This is done by marking the unit as unavailable, and by putting the owner's name in the array with the renter's data.

In this phase of the project, you will:

A$.$ Set up $4$ arrays as follows:

Array $1$: An array of characters which will contain the last name of the owner.

Array $2$: An array of integers which will contain the number of bedrooms, bathrooms and the availability status of the unit.

Array $3$: An array of characters which will contain the last names of the renter and the name of the owner if the unit is rented, or blank $($empty string$)$ if it is not.

Array $4$: An array working in parallel with the renter array, that will contain the number of bedrooms and bathroom for which the renter is seeking as well as a field to indicate if the renter is seeking a unit or wanting to be released.

NOTE: Array $1$ and Array $2$ are parallel arrays. They work in conjunction with each other.

NOTE: Array $3$ and Array $4$ are parallel arrays. They work in conjunction with each other.

NOTE: The name of the owner is used to set the relationship between the two sets of arrays.

B$.$ Have the owner enter information with respect to availability of units. Populate the Owner and Available Units arrays with the information.

Validate entries before populating arrays

Numeric values cannot be $<0$

Number of entries cannot exceed the maximum number manageable by Rent$-$Me $($message to owner re not being able to handle the entry$)$

C$.$ As the Rent$-$Me management company representative

Search for the name of an owner and print the unit $($bedroom$/$bathroom$)$ data associated with the named entry, if found. If not found, indicate that in a message to the user.

Search for a unit criteria $($bedroom and bathroom count$)$ and print the name of the owner of the first available unit that matches the criteria.
