Programming Assignment 5: Budget Management Program

Winston- Salem State University's Office of Budget Management needs a Java program to assist in determining how much money can be saved by cancelling classes in the English, Social Science, and Mathematics Departments next semester. The program will read data from a text file (budget.txt) containing information about courses, including course ID, title, start time, enrollment, and instructor type. It should display the contents of the file, cancelled courses, reasons for cancellation, savings by department, total savings, and the department that will save the most.
