public class ITstudent

Provide services to maintain information about an IT (information technology) student. The class encapsulates the same information and functionality as Student except for three differences: the ID is auto-assigned serially (starting from 200105001 and ending at 200105999), the return of the toString method is prefixed by "IT", and the GPA is 10-based rather than 5-based; i.e. it is twice that of the Student class.
