    Default A few fixable errors. Please help :(

    So i'm working on a program, which brings up a menu; this is the full question:

    Red Cross clinic requires a new computerized system to keep track of patients appointments and doctors records. Currently appointment information consists of patient name, patient surname, ID, Contact number, doctor, appointment date and time, and whether the patient is insured or not. Information between doctors should include their ID, name, surname, contact no, medical reg no and their specialisation. The application to be developed needs to be able to perform the following functions.
    1. Book a new appointment
    2. Cancel an existing appointment
    3. Change date for an appointment
    4. Add a new doctor
    5. Delete a doctor record
    6. Print all appointments for a particular doctor.
    7. Exit
    You are to develop this application using Console and any necessary classes and methods.
    I have started the program and have 4 classes, (an extra People class because I needed to practice the Inheritance):

    Main: (Red Cross)

     import java.io.*;
    import java.util.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
     
    class RedCrossExample
    {
    	public static ArrayList<Patients> appointmentsList = new ArrayList<Patients>();
    	public static ArrayList<Doctor> DoctList = new ArrayList<Doctor>();
     
    	public static void main(String args[])
    	{
    		int option= 0;
    		while (option !=5)
    		{
    		    Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
    			System.out.println("1.Book a new appointment");
    			System.out.println("2. Cancel an existing appointment");
    			System.out.println("3. Change date for an appointment");
    			System.out.println("4.Add a new doctor");
    			System.out.println("5. Delete a doctor record");
    			System.out.println("6.Print all appointments for a particular doctor");
    			System.out.println("7. Exit");
    			option = input.nextInt();
     
                            switch (option)
    		{
    			case 1:
    			{
    			BookApp();
    			break;
    			}
    			case 2:
    			{
    			break;
    			}
    			case 3:
    			{
    			break;
    			}
    			case 4:
    			{
                            AddDoctor();
    			break;
    			}
                            case 5:
                            {
                                break;
                            }
                            case 6:
                            {

                            }

    That is waaay too much code for us to wade through. There are hundreds of posts here, and we simply do not have time to be your debugger. Please read the link in my signature on asking questions the smart way, post an SSCCE that demonstrates one problem at a time, and we'll go from there.

    Yup, get something to run. At level of hello world, if need be. If you go top down, start with a menu which sends persons to commented pseudocode that you then start filling in with real code one option at a time. Bottom up strategy is to take a class like patient and use main() to test it. When functions work, go on to next class. When done, stage interactions in main off the menu.

    A journey of a thousand miles starts with one step. Each must run properly or you crash.

    May be he is going to understand the concept of Inner classes too.
