C# how to extract values from for-loop

Question

I am new to programming and got stuck on an assignment.

The assignment is to input name, age and number of sales for 4 different workers. After that I need to post the workers in order based on their amount of sales.

Where I am mostly stuck is the loop-part. I do not understand how I can insert values to the 4 workers and then return their values in order.

        int pay = 1000;

            Console.WriteLine("What is the first- and lastname of the worker: ");
            string name = Convert.ToString(Console.ReadLine());
            Console.WriteLine("What is the age of the worker: ");
            int age = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
            Console.WriteLine("What district does the worker work at: ");
            string district = Convert.ToString(Console.ReadLine());
            Console.WriteLine("How many sales has the worker done: ");
            int sales = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());

            Console.WriteLine("\n");

        Console.WriteLine("Name\t\tAge\tDistrict\tSales");
        Console.WriteLine(name + "\t" + age + "\t" + district + "\t\t" + sales);

        Console.WriteLine("\n");
        if (sales > 199)
        {
            pay = pay + sales * 4;
            Console.WriteLine(name + " is level 4 \nand will get: " + pay + "kr this month");
        }
        else if (sales <= 199 && sales >= 100)
        {
            pay = pay + sales * 3;
            Console.WriteLine(name + " is level 3 \nand will get: " + pay + "kr this month");
        }
        else if (sales <= 99 && sales >= 50)
        {
            pay = pay + sales * 2;
            Console.WriteLine(name + " is level 2 \nand will get: " + pay + "kr this month");
        }
        else
        {
            pay = pay + sales;
            Console.WriteLine(name + " is level 1\nand will get: " + pay + "kr this month");
        }

~ Please excuse the mess, I have yet to learn the proper structure of coding.

Answer 1

This Worker class will hold information about one worker:

public class Worker() 
{
    string Name;
    int NumberOfSales;
    int Age;

    public Worker(string _n, int _nos, int _a) 
    {
        Name = _n;
        NumberOfSales = _nos;
        Age = _a;
    }
}

This piece of code will run for 4 times, get information about workers, create Worker object for everyone of them and then add the objects to Workers List object:

List<Worker> Workers = new List<Workers>();
int Worker = 1;
for (int i = Worker; i < 5; i++)  
{
    Console.WriteLine("Enter name for Worker {0}", Worker);
    name = Console.ReadLine();
    Console.WriteLine("Enter age for Worker {0}", Worker);
    age = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
    Console.WriteLine("Enter number of sales for Worker {0}", Worker);
    nOfSales = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
    Worker worker = new Worker(name, age, nOfSales);
    Workers.Add(worker);
}
