将两个1d阵列组合成一个二维阵列？

Question

I am trying to possibly get this program to print out as.

Smith     1000
doe       1200
john      1400
bailey    900
potter    1600

the program itself has to arrays I either need to find out a way of possibly combining the two 1d arrays or just a way to format it correctly so it prints out in the above way.

The Program:

import java.util.*;
public class TwoArrays {

    static Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);

    public static void main(String[]args){
        String [] name = new String[5];
        int [] vote = new int[5];

        String lastname;
        int votecount;
        int i;

        for(i=0; i<name.length; i++){
            System.out.println("Enter the last name of the candidate: ");
            lastname = console.next();
            name[i]= lastname;
            System.out.println("Enter the number of votes the candidate got: ");
            votecount = console.nextInt();
            vote[i] = votecount;
        }

        String printing = Print(name);
        int printing2 = Print2(vote);

    }

    public static String Print(String [] pname){

        for (int i=0; i<pname.length; i++){
                System.out.println(pname[i]+ "      \n");
        }
        return "nothing";

    }
    public static int Print2(int [] pvote){
        for (int i=0; i<pvote.length; i++){
                System.out.println(pvote[i]+ "      \n");
        }
        return 0;
    }
}

Answer 1

For that you need set reasonable spaces using System.out.printf . Here I put %-15s for left alignment. You can easily calculate it form pname sizes.

 public static void print(String[] pname, int[] pvote) {
    for (int i = 0; i < pname.length; i++) {
        System.out.printf("%-15s   %d\n", pname[i], pvote[i]);
    }
}

"just a way to format it correctly so it prints out in the above way.":

 public static void Print(String [] pname, int [] votes){

        for (int i=0; i<pname.length; i++){
                System.out.printf("%-10s %5d\n", pname[i], votes[i]);
        }
    }

Then obvious call it just once, with both arrays as arguments:

Print(name, vote);

(with latest edit, you get some nice alignment. The name is left aligned in a field of 10, the number is right aligned in a field of width 5. You can add other characters in between (for example, a : ) just by inserting it into the format string.)

Answer 3

for (int i=0;i<pname.length;i++) {
    System.out.println(pname[i]+ "      "+pvote[i]);
}

Answer 4

Add this as an instance variable:

HashMap<String, Integer> candidateMap = new HashMap<String, Integer>();

Then in your loop:

System.out.println("Enter the last name of the candidate: ");
lastname = console.next();      
System.out.println("Enter the number of votes the candidate got: ");
votecount = console.nextInt();
candidateMap = candidateMap.put(lastname, votecount);

Then your print method (credit to @Masud for proper print formatting):

public static void Print(){
    for (String candidate : candidateMap.keySet()){
            System.out.printf("%-15s   %d\n", candidate, candidateMap.get(candidate));
    }
}
