amm1812

Answer:

a= input("Enter the last name of first candidate: ")

aVotes= int(input("Enter Number of votes cast for "+ a + ": "))

b= input("Enter the last name of second candidate: ")

bVotes= int(input("Enter Number of votes cast for "+ b + ": "))

c= input("Enter the last name of third candidate: ")

cVotes= int(input("Enter Number of votes cast for "+ c + ": "))

d= input("Enter the last name of fourth candidate: ")

dVotes = int(input("Enter Number of votes cast for "+ d + ": "))

e= input("Enter the last name of fifth candidate: ")

eVotes = int(input("Enter Number of votes cast for "+ e + ": "))

votes= [aVotes,bVotes,cVotes,dVotes,eVotes]

aPercent= (round((aVotes/sum(votes))*100, 2))

bPercent= (round((bVotes/sum(votes))*100, 2))

cPercent= (round((cVotes/sum(votes))*100, 2))

dPercent= (round((dVotes/sum(votes))*100, 2))

ePercent= (round((eVotes/sum(votes))*100, 2))

print( a, ":", aVotes,"Votes", aPercent,"%")

print( b, ":", bVotes,"Votes", bPercent,"%")

print( c, ":", cVotes,"Votes", cPercent,"%")

print( d, ":", dVotes,"Votes", dPercent,"%")

print( e, ":", eVotes,"Votes", ePercent,"%")

winner= max(votes)

if winner==aVotes:

   print(a," is the Winner")

elif winner==bVotes:

   print(b," is the Winner")

elif winner==cVotes:

   print(c," is the Winner")

elif winner==dVotes:

   print(d," is the Winner")

elif winner==eVotes:

   print(e," is the Winner")

else:

   None

Explanation:

  • First section

<em> a= input("Enter the last name of first candidate: ") </em>

<em>aVotes= int(input("Enter Number of votes cast for "+ a + ": ")) </em>

<em>b= input("Enter the last name of second candidate: ") </em>

<em>bVotes= int(input("Enter Number of votes cast for "+ b + ": ")) </em>

<em>c= input("Enter the last name of third candidate: ") </em>

<em>cVotes= int(input("Enter Number of votes cast for "+ c + ": ")) </em>

<em>d= input("Enter the last name of fourth candidate: ") </em>

<em>dVotes = int(input("Enter Number of votes cast for "+ d + ": ")) </em>

<em>e= input("Enter the last name of fifth candidate: ") </em>

<em>eVotes = int(input("Enter Number of votes cast for "+ e + ": ")) </em>

Collects the last name and the number of  votes cast

  • Second section

<em>votes= [aVotes,bVotes,cVotes,dVotes,eVotes] </em>

<em />

places all the votes in a list.

The reason for this is to allow us use the "sum function" and "max function", to get the sum of all the votes.

  • Third section

<em>aPercent= (round((aVotes/sum(votes))*100, 2)) </em>

<em>bPercent= (round((bVotes/sum(votes))*100, 2)) </em>

<em>cPercent= (round((cVotes/sum(votes))*100, 2)) </em>

<em>dPercent= (round((dVotes/sum(votes))*100, 2)) </em>

<em>ePercent= (round((eVotes/sum(votes))*100, 2)) </em>

calculates the percentage of all the votes cast for the individual candidates

  • Fourth section

<em>print( a, ":", aVotes,"Votes", aPercent,"%") </em>

<em>print( b, ":", bVotes,"Votes", bPercent,"%") </em>

<em>print( c, ":", cVotes,"Votes", cPercent,"%") </em>

<em>print( d, ":", dVotes,"Votes", dPercent,"%") </em>

<em>print( e, ":", eVotes,"Votes", ePercent,"%") </em>

prints out the candidates name, number of votes received and the percentage

  • Fifth section

winner= max(votes)

gets the maximum votes cast

  • Sixth Section

if winner==aVotes:

   print(a," is the Winner")

elif winner==bVotes:

   print(b," is the Winner")

elif winner==cVotes:

   print(c," is the Winner")

elif winner==dVotes:

   print(d," is the Winner")

elif winner==eVotes:

   print(e," is the Winner")

else:

   None

uses if statements to compare the maximum votes with the votes gotten by all the candidates to get a winner
