Write pseudocode to design a phone contact list program. This is to be in Pseudocode, specifically not in Java, C++, etc. I am in a class using Tony Gaddis' Starting Out With Programming Logic and Design and this is incredibly basic programming and pseudocode and I am struggling to understand the concept. This question has been asked before but not properly answered. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Write pseudocode to design a phone contact list program. Your program includes a Graphical User Interface that allows user to add new contacts, update existing contacts, search specific contact from the contact list, sort the contact list in ascending or descending order, delete an old contact. Your program should also provide help screen, an exit button to close the program and displays error messages for any exceptions.

Write a data text file with a list of phone number (10 digits with dashes, 555-555-5555)

Read text file to retrieve contact info (phone number, first name, last name)

Read the file into memory (hint: parallel arrays)

Individual contact info can also be entered from the keypad

Process: (open/read the file, display the menu, close file)

Maintain the phone list by ADD, UPDATE, DELETE, INQUIRE/SEARCH, SORTING

When each item on the menu is done, redisplay the menu

Output: (per each navigation menu item)

Keypad with numbers
