Background:
The goal of this project is to create a more efficient elevator system for 20+ story buildings. In this exercise, you will be moving through a tall building (in this case, 10 floors) with four elevators. Your goal is to get to a particular floor (you can pick whichever floor you want to go to in this exercise) by using the elevator system. You will notice that this elevator system is not your traditional elevator system.

You will go through three interfaces, each representing a display that you will see as you navigate the elevator system to your desired floor. The first screen you encounter in the interface is a screen on a vertical display in the lobby as you enter the building. The second interface is a display that appears above each elevator, and the third interface is the display that is inside the elevator you choose to enter.
