public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
String names[] = new String[5];
int votes[] = new int[5];
double total = 0;
int winner = 0;
DecimalFormat d = new DecimalFormat("0.00");
for(int i = 0; i < 5; ++i) {
System.out.print("Enter the name of a candidate: ");
names[i] = in.next();
System.out.print("Enter the number of votes " + names[i] + " received: ");
votes[i] = in.nextInt();
total += votes[i];
if(i > 0) {
if(votes[i] > votes[i-1]) {
winner = i;
}
}
}
System.out.println("Candidate Votes Received % of Total Votes");
for(int i = 0; i < 5; ++i) {
System.out.println(names[i] + " " + votes[i] + " " + d.format(100 * votes[i]/total));

System.out.println("Total: " + (int) total);
System.out.println("The winner of the Election is " + names[winner] + ".");
