Java Arrays, Instantiation and sorting
I am completing a homework problem for a Java course that has to do with instantiation, arrays and sorting of array data. Here is the question:

Create a class named `LibraryBook` that contains fields to hold methods for setting and getting a `LibraryBook`'s title, author, and page count. Save the file as LibraryBook.java.

Write an application that instantiates five `LibraryBook` objects and prompts the user for values for the data fields. Then prompt the user to enter which field the `LibraryBooks` should be sorted by - title, author, or page count. Perform the requested sort procedure and display the `LibraryBook` objects. Save the file as LibraryBookSort.java.

The professor also added the following criteria in addition to the book:

Declare an array of `LibraryBook` objects and sort them either by title, author or page count, as the user requests.

Here is the code I have for LibraryBook.java:

    public class LibraryBook
    {
		    String bookTitle;
		    String bookAuthor;
		    int bookPageCount;
		
		    public LibraryBook(String title, String author, int count)
		    {
			    bookTitle = title;
			    bookAuthor = author;
			    bookPageCount = count;
		    }
		
		    public String getBookTitle()
		    {
			    return bookTitle;
		    }
		
		    public String getBookAuthor()
		    {
			    return bookAuthor;
		    }
		
		    public int getBookPageCount()
		    {
			    return bookPageCount;
		    }
    }

Here is the code I have so far for LibraryBookSort.java:

    import java.util.Arrays;
    import java.util.Scanner;

    public class LibraryBookSort
    {
	    public static void main(String[] args)
	    {
	
	    LibraryBook[] book = new LibraryBook[5];
	
	    book[0] = new LibraryBook("Java Programming", "Joyce Farrell", 881);
	    book[1] = new LibraryBook("Team Of Rivals", "Dorris Kearns Goodwin", 994);
	    book[2] = new LibraryBook("1776", "Daivd McCullough", 400);
	    book[3] = new LibraryBook("No Ordinary Time", "Dorris Kearns Goodwin", 768);
	    book[4] = new LibraryBook("Steve Jobs", "Walter Isaacson", 656);
	
	    for (int x = 0; x < book.length; ++x)
		    book[x].getBookTitle();
	    for (int x = 0; x < book.length; ++x)
		    System.out.println(book[x].getBookTitle());
		
	    for (int x = 0; x < book.length; ++x)
		    book[x].getBookAuthor();
	    for (int x = 0; x < book.length; ++x)
		    System.out.println(book[x].getBookAuthor());
		
	    for (int x = 0; x < book.length; ++x)
		    book[x].getBookPageCount();
	    for (int x = 0; x < book.length; ++x)
		    System.out.println(book[x].getBookPageCount());
	    }
    }

The code above seems to work and displays all of the data, although not formatted correctly. I want the data to look like the following:

    Java Programming       Joyce Farrel               881
    Team Of Rivals         Dorris Kearns Goodwin      994
    1776                   Daivd McCullough           400  
    No Ordinary Time       Dorris Kearns Goodwin      768
    Steve Jobs             Walter Isaacson            656

In addition to the output being formatted like the above, I need to have each of the data types (Title, Author, Pages) sortable by the users selection.

At this point, I am just lost. This is above my skill leverl thus far. I am hoping that someone could give me some pointers/direction on where to go at this point. Thanks in advance for your assitance/insight.
