//  Purpose
//	The purpose of this file is to declare functions and create an interface
//	for an object of type item.  The item has many different fields, a
//	default constructor, regular constructor, and copy constructor, along with
//	mutator operations for changing the data members and accessor operations
//	for returning the values of the data members without changing them.  Finally,
//	the item class has an overloaded assignment operator = so that an item
//	can be assigned an item's data without having to implement the changes 
//	in every field of an item each time this occurs, which only happens in the 
//	organizer class.
