To run the program, open the following folders: bin Debug net5.0
Then, double click on the .exe file "Park Distance."
The program will begin by asking you to select a baseline park. You will first select a region (South, Northeast, Midwest, and West), and then select the park.
From there, you will be asked to input how many miles from the baseline park you want to see other parks.
The program will then print out a list of parks within the given range and print it to an output file titled output.txt. If there is an older version of output.txt, it will be overwritten by the newer version.
NOTES: All distances are given as the crow flies, not by traveling on roads.
A map is provided and given as an Excel spreadsheet. Each square on the map represents 30 square miles. The parks are not 100 percent to scale; this program is for demonstration purposes only. Therefore, distances given in the program may not be completely accurate.
Distances generally become less accurate the further two parks are from each other.
