help with looping structure
Okay, hello, my code works all most according to the standards, but i can't seem to figure out how to get the total out of the loop and insert it into another loop. Basically, I can't get the percentage of the votes from each candidate because the total stays as 0 in the loop. I've been at this for days & can't figure it out. Please help asap, anyways, here is the code:
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
string name[10];
int votes[20];
int total = 0;
double percent[10];
int m, i, j, sum = 0, max = 0;
cout << "Please enter 5 candidates followed by the votes they recieved here:\n";
for(i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
cin >> name[i];
cin >> votes[i];
total = total + votes[i];
}
for (j = 0; j < 5; j++)
percent[j] = votes[j]/ total * 100;
cout << left << setw(10) << "Canditates" << right << setw(15) << "Votes" << setw(12) << "Percent" << endl;
cout << setprecision(2);
for(i=0; i <5; i++)
cout << left << setw(10) << name[i] << right << setw(15) << votes[i] << setw(12) << percent[i] << endl;
cout << left << setw(10) << "Total:" << right << setw(15) << total << endl;
m = 0;
for (i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
if (votes[i] > m)
{
m = votes[i];
max = i;
}
}
cout << "The winner of the election is: " << name[max] << endl;
return 0;
}
