Where and what code needs to be incorporated to display the content of the array before using bubble sort. Thank you.
TASK: Develop a program that asks the user to enter a capital for a U.S. state. Upon receiving the user input, the program reports whether the user input is correct. For this application, the 50 states and their capitals are stored in a two-dimensional array in order by state name. Display the current contents of the array then use a bubble sort to sort the content by capital. Next, prompt the user to enter answers for all the state capitals and then display the total correct count. The user's answer is not case-sensitive.
MY SOLUTION:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Test {
/** Main method */
public static void main(String[] args){
// Create a Scanner
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
// Store 50 states and their capitals in a two-dimensional array
String[][] statesAndCapitals = getData();
int count =0; // Correct answer
// Repeatedly prompt the user to enter the capital of a state
for (int i =0; i < statesAndCapitals.length; i++){
System.out.print("What is the capital of "
+ statesAndCapitals[i][0]+"?");
String capital = input.nextLine();
if (isEqual(statesAndCapitals[i][1], capital)){
System.out.println("Your answer is correct");
count++;
}
else {
System.out.println("The correct answer should be "+
statesAndCapitals[i][1]);
}
}
// Display the total correct count
System.out.println("
The correct count is "+ count);
}
/** isEqual returns true if a is equal to c */
public static boolean isEqual(String c, String a){
if (c.length()!= a.length())
return false;
for (int i =0; i < c.length(); i++){
if (c.charAt(i)!= a.charAt(i))
return false;
}
return true;
}
/** getData initializes the array with the 50 states and their capitals */
public static String[][] getData(){
String[][] d ={
{"Alabama", "Montgomery"},{"Alaska", "Juneau"},{"Arizona", "Phoenix"},
{"Arkansas", "Little Rock"},{"California", "Sacramento"},
