Can anyone tell me how a real professional program this problem
"Address Book"
Write a program that functions as an address book. It should have entries containing at least the following information: first and last name, phone number, address, and email address. At a minimum you’ll want an address book entry class. You should be able to add entries and search for entries (by last name at a minimum).
In order to save the address book for later you’ll need to write it to a file. Don’t worry about saving the address book to a file if you don’t already know how to do that. Other C# courses on Treehouse teach how to do that.

7,213 PointsThank you sir Daniel :) I started to code it based from the tips that you gave, but I'm not sure if I did it correctly. yes It is working, but I have a doubt that I've written a code that is future proof and reusable that is why I would like to know how other programmers solve the problem, I really appreciate your effort sir and it really helps me :)

7,608 PointsYou will be writing so much code that at this stage of learning I don't think you should worry about advanced stuff like rehusability, and you can just do it the best you know. Keep moving forward my friend.

7,608 PointsHi Lian, not that I'm a super professional ha! but I would start doing diagrams on a piece of paper. Then once I got the flow of the program and the different "objects", I'll go about writing classes. if necessary also draw the different screens of the user interface, even if it's a console application. And only then start coding it. Do a "person" class, and an address book entry class, and you may even do an address class, etc. I think with this you have a lot of work to do to start. I hope this helps.
