Counting frequencies of array elements

Given an array which may contain duplicates, print all elements and their frequencies.

Examples: 

Input :  arr[] = {10, 20, 20, 10, 10, 20, 5, 20}
Output : 10 3
20 4
5 1

Input : arr[] = {10, 20, 20}
Output : 10 1
20 2

A simple solution is to run two loops. For every item count number of times, it occurs. To avoid duplicate printing, keep track of processed items. 

Implementation:

C++




// CPP program to count frequencies of array items
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
void countFreq(int arr[], int n)
{
    // Mark all array elements as not visited
    vector<bool> visited(n, false);
 
    // Traverse through array elements and
    // count frequencies
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
 
        // Skip this element if already processed
        if (visited[i] == true)
            continue;
 
        // Count frequency
        int count = 1;
        for (int j = i + 1; j < n; j++) {
            if (arr[i] == arr[j]) {
                visited[j] = true;
                count++;
            }
        }
        cout << arr[i] << " " << count << endl;
    }
}
 
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 10, 20, 20, 10, 10, 20, 5, 20 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
    countFreq(arr, n);
    return 0;
}
 
 

Java




// Java program to count frequencies of array items
import java.util.Arrays;
 
class GFG
{
public static void countFreq(int arr[], int n)
{
    boolean visited[] = new boolean[n];
     
    Arrays.fill(visited, false);
 
    // Traverse through array elements and
    // count frequencies
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
 
        // Skip this element if already processed
        if (visited[i] == true)
            continue;
 
        // Count frequency
        int count = 1;
        for (int j = i + 1; j < n; j++) {
            if (arr[i] == arr[j]) {
                visited[j] = true;
                count++;
            }
        }
        System.out.println(arr[i] + " " + count);
    }
}
 
// Driver code
public static void main(String []args)
{
    int arr[] = new int[]{ 10, 20, 20, 10, 10, 20, 5, 20 };
    int n = arr.length;
    countFreq(arr, n);
}
}

Complexity Analysis:

  • Time Complexity : O(n2) 
  • Auxiliary Space : O(n)

An efficient solution is to use hashing.

Implementation:

C++




// CPP program to count frequencies of array items
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
void countFreq(int arr[], int n)
{
    unordered_map<int, int> mp;
 
    // Traverse through array elements and
    // count frequencies
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        mp[arr[i]]++;
 
    // Traverse through map and print frequencies
    for (auto x : mp)
        cout << x.first << " " << x.second << endl;
}
 
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 10, 20, 20, 10, 10, 20, 5, 20 };

Complexity Analysis:

  • Time Complexity: O(n) since using a single loop to track frequency
  • Auxiliary Space: O(n) for hashmap.

Another Efficient Solution (Space optimization): we can find frequency of array elements using Binary search function . First we will sort the array for binary search . Our frequency of element will be ‘(last occ – first occ)+1’ of a element in a array .                  

Below is the implementation of the above approach: 

C++




// C++ implementation of the above approach
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
//Function to find frequency of elements in the array
void countFreq(int arr[], int n)
{  
    sort(arr,arr+n);//sort array for binary search
    
    for(int i = 0 ; i < n ;i++)
    {
      //index of first and last occ of arr[i]
      int first_index = lower_bound(arr,arr+n,arr[i])- arr;
      int last_index = upper_bound(arr,arr+n,arr[i])- arr-1;
      i=last_index;
       
      int fre=last_index-first_index+1;//finding frequency
      cout << arr[i] <<" "<<fre <<endl;//printing frequency
    }
}
 
// Drive code
int main()
{  
    int arr[] = { 10, 20, 20, 10, 10, 20, 5, 20 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
   
    // Function call
    countFreq(arr, n);
    return 0;
     
}

        int first_index = Arrays.binarySearch(arr, arr[i]);
