Please consider replacing hardcoded student IDs in the Seed the Database section with live values

[PragmaticIT]

Description

Hi
In the Seed the database section (here) new Enrollment entities are created using hardcoded (assumed) StudentID like in the following line:
new Enrollment{StudentID=1,CourseID=1050,Grade=Grade.A},

instead, the live ID can be used by just refering to the student entity by refering to its index in the array defined before:
new Enrollment{StudentID=students[1].ID,CourseID=1050,Grade=Grade.A}

This method makes the solution more futureproof and opens it to a new experiments like using GUIDs instead of autogenerated IDs etc.
