Question

Help me modify the code below so that the total votes cast per state is shown. In other words, I need to add a column to each row summing the total votes cast for all candidates per state.
(Here is a link to the text file I'm using: https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=6a7336f2f22f7dcb&resid=6A7336F2F22F7DCB!127&parid=6A7336F2F22F7DCB!117&authkey=!AEHUTN7Rn78A6VM)

File election = new File ("voting_2008.txt");
Scanner sc = new Scanner(election);

String[] states = new String[51];
int[][] votes = new int[51][3];

for(int s=0; s<51; s++)
{
states[s]=sc.nextLine();
}

for(int c=0; c<3; c++)
{
for(int s=0; s<51; s++)
{
votes[s][c]=sc.nextInt();
}
}

Formatter fmt=new Formatter();
Formatter format = fmt.format("%20s%12s%12s%12s", "State", "Obama",
"McCain","Other");
System.out.println(fmt);
for(int s=0; s<51; s++)
{
fmt = new Formatter();
fmt.format("%20s", states[s]);
System.out.print(fmt);
for (int c=0;c<3;c++)
{
fmt=new Formatter();
fmt.format("%12d", votes[s][c]);
System.out.print(fmt);
}
System.out.println();

Explanation / Answer

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.util.Formatter;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class Program {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException {
        File election = new File ("voting_2008.txt");
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(election);

        String[] states = new String[51];
        int[][] votes = new int[51][3];
        int sum;

        for(int s = 0; s < 51; s++)
        {
            states[s] = sc.nextLine();
        }

        for(int c = 0; c < 3; c++)
        {
            for(int s = 0; s < 51; s++)
            {
                votes[s][c] = sc.nextInt();
            }
        }

        Formatter fmt = new Formatter();
        fmt.format("%20s%12s%12s%12s%12s", "State", "Obama", "McCain", "Other", "Total");
        System.out.println(fmt);
        for(int s = 0; s < 51; s++)
        {
            fmt = new Formatter();
            fmt.format("%20s", states[s]);
            System.out.print(fmt);
            sum = 0;
            for (int c = 0; c < 3; c++)
            {
                sum += votes[s][c];
                fmt = new Formatter();
                fmt.format("%12d", votes[s][c]);
                System.out.print(fmt);
            }
            fmt = new Formatter();
            fmt.format("%12d", sum);
            System.out.print(fmt);
            System.out.println();
        }
    }
}
