Practical Activity 4 (Election)
Write a program Election that computes the tally in a write-in election, and announces the
winner. Since the votes are write-in, there is no pre-determined set of candidates. Whoever
appears the most in the votes is the winner. The user enters the individual votes, one vote
per line, and ends entering with typing -1 or an empty line. To compute the tally, the
program uses two arrays, a String [] variable (names), and an int [] variable (count). Upon
receiving a single vote, the program checks if the name on the vote appears in names, and if
it does, the program adds 1 to the value of the element in count. If the name does not
appear in names, the program extends both arrays by one element, stores the name in
names at the last position and store 1 in count at the last position. In this manner, the two
arrays will have the same lengths. The initial length is O for both arrays.
Below is an example of how the program may run:
Enter the votes, one vote per line. :
| End with either -1 or an empty line. I
