Finding repeated words on a string and counting the repetitions

I need to find repeated words on a string, and then count how many times they were repeated. So basically, if the input string is this:

String s = "House, House, House, Dog, Dog, Dog, Dog";

I need to create a new string list without repetitions and save somewhere else the amount of repetitions for each word, like such:

New String: "House, Dog"

New Int Array: [3, 4]

Is there a way to do this easily with Java? I've managed t开发者_运维百科o separate the string using s.split() but then how do I count repetitions and eliminate them on the new string? Thanks!

You've got the hard work done. Now you can just use a Map to count the occurrences:

Map<String, Integer> occurrences = new HashMap<String, Integer>();

for ( String word : splitWords ) {
   Integer oldCount = occurrences.get(word);
   if ( oldCount == null ) {
      oldCount = 0;
   }
   occurrences.put(word, oldCount + 1);
}

Using map.get(word) will tell you many times a word occurred. You can construct a new list by iterating through map.keySet():

for ( String word : occurrences.keySet() ) {
  //do something with word
}

Note that the order of what you get out of keySet is arbitrary. If you need the words to be sorted by when they first appear in your input String, you should use a LinkedHashMap instead.

Try this,

public class DuplicateWordSearcher {
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public static void main(String[] args) {

    String text = "a r b k c d se f g a d f s s f d s ft gh f ws w f v x s g h d h j j k f sd j e wed a d f";

    List<String> list = Arrays.asList(text.split(" "));

    Set<String> uniqueWords = new HashSet<String>(list);
    for (String word : uniqueWords) {
        System.out.println(word + ": " + Collections.frequency(list, word));
    }
}

}

---

public class StringsCount{

    public static void main(String args[]) {

        String value = "This is testing Program testing Program";

        String item[] = value.split(" ");

        HashMap<String, Integer> map = new HashMap<>();

        for (String t : item) {
            if (map.containsKey(t)) {
                map.put(t, map.get(t) + 1);

            } else {
                map.put(t, 1);
            }
        }
        Set<String> keys = map.keySet();
        for (String key : keys) {
            System.out.println(key);
            System.out.println(map.get(key));
        }

    }
}

As mentioned by others use String::split(), followed by some map (hashmap or linkedhashmap) and then merge your result. For completeness sake putting the code.

import java.util.*;

public class Genric<E>
{
    public static void main(String[] args) 
    {
        Map<String, Integer> unique = new LinkedHashMap<String, Integer>();
        for (String string : "House, House, House, Dog, Dog, Dog, Dog".split(", ")) {
            if(unique.get(string) == null)
                unique.put(string, 1);
            else
                unique.put(string, unique.get(string) + 1);
        }
        String uniqueString = join(unique.keySet(), ", ");
        List<Integer> value = new ArrayList<Integer>(unique.values());

        System.out.println("Output = " + uniqueString);
        System.out.println("Values = " + value);

    }

    public static String join(Collection<String> s, String delimiter) {
        StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
        Iterator<String> iter = s.iterator();
        while (iter.hasNext()) {
            buffer.append(iter.next());
            if (iter.hasNext()) {
                buffer.append(delimiter);
            }
        }
        return buffer.toString();
    }
}

New String is Output = House, Dog

Int array (or rather list) Values = [3, 4] (you can use List::toArray) for getting an array.

---

Using java8

private static void findWords(String s, List<String> output, List<Integer> count){
    String[] words = s.split(", ");
    Map<String, Integer> map = new LinkedHashMap<>();
    Arrays.stream(words).forEach(e->map.put(e, map.getOrDefault(e, 0) + 1));
    map.forEach((k,v)->{
        output.add(k);
        count.add(v);
    });
}

Also, use a LinkedHashMap if you want to preserve the order of insertion

private static void findWords(){
    String s = "House, House, House, Dog, Dog, Dog, Dog";
    List<String> output = new ArrayList<>();
    List<Integer> count = new ArrayList<>();
    findWords(s, output, count);
    System.out.println(output);
    System.out.println(count);
}

Output

[House, Dog]
[3, 4]

If this is a homework, then all I can say is: use String.split() and HashMap<String,Integer>.

(I see you've found split() already. You're along the right lines then.)

---

It may help you somehow.

String st="I am am not the one who is thinking I one thing at time";
String []ar = st.split("\\s");
Map<String, Integer> mp= new HashMap<String, Integer>();
int count=0;

for(int i=0;i<ar.length;i++){
    count=0;

    for(int j=0;j<ar.length;j++){
        if(ar[i].equals(ar[j])){
        count++;                
        }
    }

    mp.put(ar[i], count);
}

System.out.println(mp);

---

Once you have got the words from the string it is easy. From Java 10 onwards you can try the following code:

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;

public class StringFrequencyMap {
    public static void main(String... args) {
        String[] wordArray = {"House", "House", "House", "Dog", "Dog", "Dog", "Dog"};
        var freq = Arrays.stream(wordArray)
                         .collect(Collectors.groupingBy(x -> x, Collectors.counting()));
        System.out.println(freq);
    }
}

Output:

{House=3, Dog=4}

---

You can use Prefix tree (trie) data structure to store words and keep track of count of words within Prefix Tree Node.

  #define  ALPHABET_SIZE 26
  // Structure of each node of prefix tree
  struct prefix_tree_node {
    prefix_tree_node() : count(0) {}
    int count;
    prefix_tree_node *child[ALPHABET_SIZE];
  };
  void insert_string_in_prefix_tree(string word)
  {
    prefix_tree_node *current = root;
    for(unsigned int i=0;i<word.size();++i){
      // Assuming it has only alphabetic lowercase characters
            // Note ::::: Change this check or convert into lower case
    const unsigned int letter = static_cast<int>(word[i] - 'a');

      // Invalid alphabetic character, then continue
      // Note :::: Change this condition depending on the scenario
      if(letter > 26)
        throw runtime_error("Invalid alphabetic character");

      if(current->child[letter] == NULL)
        current->child[letter] = new prefix_tree_node();

      current = current->child[letter];
    }
  current->count++;
  // Insert this string into Max Heap and sort them by counts
}

    // Data structure for storing in Heap will be something like this
    struct MaxHeapNode {
       int count;
       string word;
    };

After inserting all words, you have to print word and count by iterating Maxheap.

If you pass a String argument it will count the repetition of each word

/**
 * @param string
 * @return map which contain the word and value as the no of repatation
 */
public Map findDuplicateString(String str) {
    String[] stringArrays = str.split(" ");
    Map<String, Integer> map = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
    Set<String> words = new HashSet<String>(Arrays.asList(stringArrays));
    int count = 0;
    for (String word : words) {
        for (String temp : stringArrays) {
            if (word.equals(temp)) {
                ++count;
            }
        }
        map.put(word, count);
        count = 0;
    }

    return map;

}

output:

 Word1=2, word2=4, word2=1,. . .

For Strings with no space, we can use the below mentioned code

private static void findRecurrence(String input) {
    final Map<String, Integer> map = new LinkedHashMap<>();
    for(int i=0; i<input.length(); ) {
        int pointer = i;
        int startPointer = i;
        boolean pointerHasIncreased = false;
        for(int j=0; j<startPointer; j++){
            if(pointer<input.length() && input.charAt(j)==input.charAt(pointer) && input.charAt(j)!=32){
                pointer++;
                pointerHasIncreased = true;
            }else{
                if(pointerHasIncreased){
                    break;
                }
            }
        }
        if(pointer - startPointer >= 2) {
            String word = input.substring(startPointer, pointer);
            if(map.containsKey(word)){
                map.put(word, map.get(word)+1);
            }else{
                map.put(word, 1);
            }
            i=pointer;
        }else{
            i++;
        }
    }
    for(Map.Entry<String, Integer> entry : map.entrySet()){
        System.out.println(entry.getKey() + " = " + (entry.getValue()+1));
    }
}

Passing some input as "hahaha" or "ba na na" or "xxxyyyzzzxxxzzz" give the desired output.

Hope this helps :

public static int countOfStringInAText(String stringToBeSearched, String masterString){

    int count = 0;
    while (masterString.indexOf(stringToBeSearched)>=0){
      count = count + 1;
      masterString = masterString.substring(masterString.indexOf(stringToBeSearched)+1);
    }
    return count;
}

package string;

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

Using Java 8 streams collectors:

public static Map<String, Integer> countRepetitions(String str) {
    return Arrays.stream(str.split(", "))
        .collect(Collectors.toMap(s -> s, s -> 1, (a, b) -> a + 1));
}

Input: "House, House, House, Dog, Dog, Dog, Dog, Cat"

Output: {Cat=1, House=3, Dog=4}

please try these it may be help for you.

public static void main(String[] args) {
        String str1="House, House, House, Dog, Dog, Dog, Dog";
        String str2=str1.replace(",", "");
        Map<String,Integer> map=findFrquenciesInString(str2);
        Set<String> keys=map.keySet();
        Collection<Integer> vals=map.values();
        System.out.println(keys);
        System.out.println(vals);
    }

private static Map<String,Integer> findFrquenciesInString(String str1) {
        String[] strArr=str1.split(" ");
        Map<String,Integer> map=new HashMap<>();
        for(int i=0;i<strArr.length;i++) {
            int count=1;
            for(int j=i+1;j<strArr.length;j++) {
                if(strArr[i].equals(strArr[j]) && strArr[i]!="-1") {
                    strArr[j]="-1";
                    count++;
                }
            }
            if(count>1 && strArr[i]!="-1") {
                map.put(strArr[i], count);
                strArr[i]="-1";
            }
        }
        return map;
    }

as introduction of stream has changed the way we code; i would like to add some of the ways of doing this using it

    String[] strArray = str.split(" ");
    
    //1. All string value with their occurrences
    Map<String, Long> counterMap = 
            Arrays.stream(strArray).collect(Collectors.groupingBy(e->e, Collectors.counting()));

    //2. only duplicating Strings
    Map<String, Long> temp = counterMap.entrySet().stream().filter(map->map.getValue() > 1).collect(Collectors.toMap(map -> map.getKey(), map -> map.getValue()));
    System.out.println("test : "+temp);
    
    //3. List of Duplicating Strings
    List<String> masterStrings = Arrays.asList(strArray);
    Set<String> duplicatingStrings = 
            masterStrings.stream().filter(i -> Collections.frequency(masterStrings, i) > 1).collect(Collectors.toSet());

---

Use Function.identity() inside Collectors.groupingBy and store everything in a MAP.

String a  = "Gini Gina Gina Gina Gina Protijayi Protijayi "; 
        Map<String, Long> map11 = Arrays.stream(a.split(" ")).collect(Collectors
                .groupingBy(Function.identity(),Collectors.counting()));
        System.out.println(map11);

// output => {Gina=4, Gini=1, Protijayi=2}

In Python we can use collections.Counter()

a = "Roopa Roopi  loves green color Roopa Roopi"
words = a.split()

wordsCount = collections.Counter(words)
for word,count in sorted(wordsCount.items()):
    print('"%s" is repeated %d time%s.' % (word,count,"s" if count > 1 else "" ))

Output :

"Roopa" is repeated 2 times. "Roopi" is repeated 2 times. "color" is repeated 1 time. "green" is repeated 1 time. "loves" is repeated 1 time.
