Package mediaRentalManager

Interface MediaRentalManagerInt

public interface MediaRentalManagerInt

Interface that defines the functionality expected from the media rental manager. The two possible media we can have are movies and music albums. A movie has a title, a number of copies that are available for rent, and a rating $($e$.$g$.,"$PG$").$ An album has a title, a number of copies, an artist, and a list of songs $($String with title of songs separated by commas$).$

IMPORTANT:The database of the media rental manager, must define and use two ArrayList. One stores the media $($both Movies and Album information$)$ and one stores Customer information. You will lose significant credit if you do not define and use these ArrayList objects.
