VOTING

DESCRIPTION

The voting contract allows users to create proposals and vote on them. Each proposal contains a description, a deadline, and vote counts for "YAY" and "NAY" options. The contract includes functions to create a proposal, vote on a proposal, and fetch the vote counts for a proposal. It also includes a modifier to ensure that voting is allowed only for active proposals.

FUNCTIONS

  1. createProposal(string memory _proposal) external returns(uint256): This function allows users to create a new proposal for voting. It takes a proposal description as input and returns the index of the created proposal.

  2. vote(uint256 _id, Vote vote1) external activeProposalOnly(_id): Users can vote either "YAY" or "NAY" on a specific proposal identified by its index. This function increments the vote count accordingly based on the vote option selected. The modifier activeProposalOnly ensures that the voting is allowed only if the proposal is still active (before the deadline).

  3. getVotes(uint256 _id) view external returns(uint256, uint256): This function retrieves the number of "YAY" votes and "NAY" votes for a particular proposal. It takes the proposal index as input and returns the respective vote counts.

  4. numproposals()
