Question

C++ using vectors.

in the following code, if a user adds duplicate names the votes should be added to only one of the names:

example

display "Enter candidate name: "

input john

display "Enter candidate vote:"

input 10

display "Enter candidate name: "

input john

display "Enter candidate vote:"

input 10

so the output has to be

john with 20 votes.

ANS:

#include<iterator>
#include<string>
#include<ctime>
#include <vector>
#include<bits/stdc++.h>
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int max_element(const vector<int>&stuff)

{

int max_index =0;

for (int i=1; i<stuff.size();++i)

if (stuff[i]>stuff[max_index])

max_index=i;

return max_index;

}

template <typename type>

void show(const vector<type>&stuff)

{

for (int i=0; i<stuff.size(); i++)

cout <<stuff[i]<<' ';

}

int main()

{

vector<string> names;

vector<int> votes;

string name;

int vote;

int size=3;

for (int i=0; i<size;++i)

{

cout<<"enter candidates "<< i+1<<" name: ";

getline(cin, name,'\n');

cout<<"Enter "<<name<< "'s votes ";

cin>>vote;

cin.get();

names.push_back(name);

votes.push_back(vote);

}

  

for(int i=0;i<size;i++) //Updated checking if same name exists, Then add their votes all togeather
{
   for(int j=i+1;j<size;j++)
   {
       if(names[i]==names[j])
       {
           votes[i]+=votes[j];
       }
   }
}

int max_index= max_element(votes);

for (int j=0;j<size;++j)
{

if (votes[j]==votes[max_index])

cout<<"The winners list is bellow "<< names[j]<<" With Votes="<<votes[j]<<endl;

}

return 0;

}
