How to carry out ArrayList implementation so as to store person details

Question

Hi, I need to implement an ArrayList which can hold like person records. I can only do this so far:

---

CODE

---

import java.util.*;

class ArrayListDemo {

public static void main(String args[]) {

    ArrayList al = new ArrayList();
    System.out.println("Initial size of al: "
            + al.size());

    al.add("C");
    al.add("A");
    al.add("E");
    al.add("B");
    al.add("D");
    al.add("F");
    al.add(1, "A2");
    System.out.println("Size of al after additions: "
            + al.size());

    System.out.println("Contents of al: " + al);

    al.remove("F");
    al.remove(2);
    System.out.println("Size of al after deletions: "
            + al.size());
    System.out.println("Contents of al: " + al);
}
}

A member of this website told me to do the following, I really dont get how to get about doing that:

---

You do

ArrayList<Person> myList = new ArrayList<Person>();

and then you can repeatedly

newPerson = new Person("Bruce", "Wayne", 1972, "Gotham City");

myList.add(newPerson);

and you can access folks in the list by doing

int personNumber = 0;

Person retrievedPerson = myList.get(personNumber);

or even

for (Person someone : myList) {
   System.out.println(someone);
}

Any help as to complete a simple program utilizing the above points mentioned by that particular stackoverflow member (ie. answer by Carl Smotricz) would be appreciated.

Thanks alot
