Inspiration
The upcoming presidential election inspired us to create this in order to help people realize their political identity based on their views
What it does
Presents the user with either multiple choice or likert scale questions (chosen randomly) and based on their answers calculates their political alignment (left/moderate/right)
How we built it
Each question was assigned a point value. So answer choices that reflect a democratic point of view was given a positive value and answer choices that reflect a republican point of view was given a negative value. The total points were then summed up and using an if-elseif-else chain outputted the political alignment of the user.
Challenges we ran into
- thinking of a project idea with significance
- programming language barriers
- input issues (scanner)
Accomplishments that we're proud of
- teamwork
- made new friends
What we learned
- Collaboration and Teamwork
- Strengthed Java Fundamentals
What's next for Politics Quiz
Could be expanded upon to feature questions from a database and implementation of A.I to give more personalized questions.
