{ listPeople.Clear(); }

The caller would now be able to interact with the internal Person objects as shown here:

static void Main(string[] args)

{

Console.WriteLine("***** Fun with Indexers *****\n");

PeopleCollection myPeople = new PeopleCollection();

myPeople["Homer"] = new Person("Homer", "Simpson", 40);

myPeople["Marge"] = new Person("Marge", "Simpson", 38);
