Each year, sleepy Hollow Elementary School holds a “Principal for a day” lottery. A student can participate by entering his/her name and ID into a pool of candidates. The winner is selected randomly from all entries. Each student is allowed only one entry. Implement a Student Class that encapsulates the Student. Implement StudentLottery class with methods addStudents() and pickWinner() and main().

Hint: use random class to pick winner.
