You are in charge of writing software for an elevator (lift) company.
Your task is to write a program to control the travel of a the lift for a 10 storey building.
A passenger can summon the lift to go up or down from any floor, once in the lift they can choose the floor they’d like to travel to.

Some test cases:
* Passenger summons lift on the ground floor. Once in chooses to go to level 5.
* Passenger summons lift on level 6 to go down. Passenger on level 4 summons the lift to go down. They both choose L1.
* Passenger 1 summons lift to go up from L2. Passenger 2 summons lift to go down from L4. Passenger 1 chooses to go to L6. Passenger 2 chooses to go to Ground Floor
* Passenger 1 summons lift to go up from Ground. They choose L5. Passenger 2 summons lift to go down from L4. Passenger 3 summons lift to go down from L10. Passengers 2 and 3 choose to travel to Ground.
