# Inventory Management System: Class Design

## Overview

This guide outlines how to implement an inventory management system by creating a Python file named `inventory.py`. This program will manage a collection of inventory items using a class named `Inventory` with several key functionalities. 

## Class Definition: `Inventory`

### Initialization

- **Function: `__init__`**
  - **Parameters:**
    - `self`: The instance of the class.
    - `filename`: A string representing the name of the JSON file.
  - **Actions:**
    - Define `self.data` as an instance variable to store the inventory dictionary.
    - Load data from the JSON file, if available, and assign it to `self.data`.
    - If the file doesn't exist or there's an error, handle it gracefully.

### Adding Items

- **Function: `add_item`**
  - **Parameters:**
    - `self`: The class instance.
    - `barcode`: A string used as a key in the dictionary.
    - `description`: A brief description of the item.
  - **Actions:**
    - Check the format of `barcode`; return 109 if the format is incorrect.
    - Return 101 if the `barcode` already exists.
    - Add the item to the dictionary with a quantity of zero.
    - Save the updated dictionary to the JSON file.
    - Return 100 for a successful addition.

### Modifying Item Descriptions

- **Function: `modify_description`**
  - **Parameters:**
    - `self`: The class instance.
    - `barcode`: The item's barcode.
    - `description`: The new description for the item.
  - **Actions:**
    - Return 102 if the `barcode` is not found.
    - Update the item's description.
    - Save the changes to the JSON file.
    - Return 100 for a successful update.

### Adding Quantity

- **Function: `add_qty`**
  - **Parameters:**
    - `self`: The class instance.
    - `barcode`: The item's barcode.
    - `qty`: The quantity to add.
  - **Actions:**
    - Return 102 if the `barcode` doesn't exist.
    - Validate the `qty`; return 108 if invalid.
    - Update the quantity and save changes.
    - Return 100 for a successful addition.

### Removing Quantity

- **Function: `remove_qty`
