Programming Logic and Design, Introductory 7th Edition by Joyce Farrell

تمرين 19

The Apgar Medical group keeps a patient file for each doctor in the office. Each record contains the patient’s first and last name, home address, and birth year. The records are sorted in ascending birth year order. Two doctors, Dr. Best and Dr. Cushing, have formed a partnership. Design the logic that produces a merged list of their patients in ascending order by birth year.
