In Java

Write a method that allows the user to enter the last names of five candidates in a local election and the votes received by each candidate. The program should then output each candidate\'s name, the votes received by that candidate, and the percentage of the total votes received by the candidate. Your program should also output the winner of the election. A sample output would be:

Candidate        Votes Received                % of Total Votes

Johnson            5000                              25.91

Miller                4000                              20.73

Wilson              6000                              31.09

Robinson          2500                              12.95

Abbot               1800                              9.33

Total                19300

The winner of the election is Wilson

Make a method \"calculateElection\"

Solution

VotesPercentage.java

               System.out.println(\"Enter candidate\'s name and the votes received by the candidate.\");
              
               /* This for loop will get each candidate name

   }

   /* This method will calculate the total votes polled
   * and find the winner based on votes received by each person

   private static void calculateElection(String[] names, int[] votes, int total) {

       String winner_name = null;
      
       winner=votes[0];

   //This for loop will decides the winner based on the votes

           }
          
       }
         
       //Displaying the result in the tabular form.
       System.out.println(\"Candidate\\tVotes Received\\t% of Total Votes\");
       for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
       {
           System.out.printf(\"%10s\\t%s\\t\\t%.2f\ \",names[i],votes[i],((double)votes[i]/total)*100);
       }
       System.out.println(\"The Winner of the Election is \"+winner_name);

   }

}
