Give the user a way to search for an entry, probably by name, using a simply binary search.

Possible menu:

Enter your selection:
  1) View all entries
  2) View an entry
  3) Edit an entry
  4) Delete an entry
  5) Create an entry
  6) Search for an entry
  7) Read a CSV
$ _

This should be pretty simple, just an array of entries that users can view/add/delete.

Option A

Start with nothing, build the project file by file in an OO fashion, driver class which uses other classes.

Option B (proposed by Eliot)

In the Ruby section, introduce a pre-written long procedural script outside of a class that can be progressively refactored to help students practice OO-thinking:

1. Introduce a method to wrap the procedural script
2. Introduce a class to wrap the method
3. Split the long method into smaller methods called from the original method.
4. (optional) Split the class and methods into 2 or 3 classes.
