In this lab, the task is to take our previous lab, and create methods to execute our program as opposed to simple case statements. So I created 4 methods and then used a switch statement to call those methods when the user inputs his selection. I also was able to account for invalid inputs from the user. If the program asks for a number, and the user inputs a letter, it will ask the user to use a valid input for the program. This creates a program that does what its supposed to do, and remain as error-free as possible.
