//First Step: reading the file and putting elements into arrays (up to 100 wanted/forsale items)
// Open the File
//  Read each line (THERE MAY BE LESS THAN 100 ITEMS)
//   Use an array of structs (w/ fixed sixe 100) to store the available items
//     Each struct has a type, price, and wanted/forsale (0 = forsale, 1 = wanted)

//Second Step: Check if there is a match w/ existing items in board as you read the file (nested loop)
//  If a match is not found, add it to the first available position in the array
//  If a match is found, use first match found & stop searching array
//   Remove the matched item from the array and shift everything left to fill the gap (see 3.2.4 from book)
//    Write the action to the terminal:
//     cout << itemArray[x].type << ” “ << itemArray[x].price << endl;
//      itemArray = array of structs, x = index where item found, price is actual item cost NOT what user willing to pay

//Third Steps: File name, print remaining array contents, 

//MAKE SURE TO CHECK THAT THE ARRAY SPOT ISN'T EMPTY (FOR LESS THAN 100 LIST)
