In plurality prblm, I managed to update votes for each candidate, my code can print the one winner, but still stuck if they are many winners . help by hints or clues, not the whole solution. Thanks in advance.
void print_winner(void)
{
int v = 0; //maximum number of votes
string w; //winner of the election
for (int i = 0; i < candidate_count; i++)
{
if (v <= candidates[i].votes)
{
v = candidates[i].votes;
}
}
for (int j = 0; j < candidate_count; j++)
{
if (candidates[j].votes == v)
{
w = candidates[j].name;
}
}
printf("%s\n", w);
return;
}
Change your second for
loop to this:
for (int j = 0; j < candidate_count; j++)
{
if (candidates[j].votes == v)
{
w = candidates[j].name;
printf("%s\n", w);
}
}
You need to separate it into two for loops, if you have them together the first loop will run only through the first candidate with more than 1 vote and print it. Since it has not checked the others. That loops must finish and go through the whole set to actually find the max number of votes.
