Step 2: Querying the data.

1. After reading in the data, ask the user to request actors based on name.

2. Allow any substring of the name to be used and look up all names having that substring. For instance, Fred Astaire’ may be specified using Fred Astaire” HAstaire”,

AstaiH, or even F, but be careful; vague name specifications will result in many individuals being displayed.

3. Exit the program when the user enters an asterisk (1;

4. See the sample output for the format to present the data.

Data Description:

The first line in the file should be read in as an mt. It is the number of lines in the rest of the file and will be used to size the array. See hints for more info on the file.

int const NAME       = 2;

int const BIRTH      = 3;
