This question asks for 1 answer that does the things stated below, thus it is not able to be split into multiple posts. We just began learning about arrays which explains the multiple requirements for this question. Some Further Information Given: Example of forth entry in CD Database: * * * *TIP: You must have some sort of variable that keeps track of the number of CDs entered. ----This will start out at 0 and increment by 1 each time a CD is entered---. The best way to approach this program is to do everything except the file input/output FIRST. Once that is working, then add in the options to store and retrieve the data. Recall use of ifstream and ofstream. AND I Recommend storing the data into a text file delimited by new lines. For Example: Fernando ABBA 120 Crazy Train Ozzy Osborne 132
