Score Board Java

February 22, 2022

I am quite new to java programming

Preparing a scoreboard and in Java Program, I am struggling with Carry Over score in the for loops
appreciate if I can have simple example of how I can prepare such board in java.

Round 1

Carry Over Score : 0
Current: 5
Total: 5

Round 2

Carry Over Score : 5
Current :10
Total 15

Round 3

Carry Over Score: 15
Current: 5
Total : 20

Round 4

Carry Over Score: 20
Current: 7
Total : 27

>Solution :

I assume this is what you intend to do:

int carryOverScore = 0;
int currentScore = 0;
int totalScore = 0;

int gameRounds = 5;
for (int i = 0; i < gameRounds; i++) {
    currentScore = 5; //you should use some method to calculate current score instead of hardcoding the value
    carryOverScore = totalScore;
    totalScore = totalScore + currentScore;

    System.out.println("Carry over: " + carryOverScore);
    System.out.println("Current: " + currentScore);
    System.out.println("Total: " + totalScore);
}
