Need Some Helps

[Kath_Fish]

Hi....now I need some helps..because I totally no idea to do that..
Now, I need to read and count the frequency for each items
Eg,
set of data in text file
1 2
1 3
1 4
2 3
3 4

Now, i wan to read each item and count the frequency for each item.
ITEM FREQUENCY
1 contain 3
2 contain 2
3 contain 3
4 contain 2

after that,I need to rearrange my data.I have to sort each item in each row from highest frequency to lowest.
Example result,
1 2
1 3
1 4
3 2
3 4
2 3(red) will sort to 3 2 because 3 is more frequent than the 2.
Hope someone can give me some idea to do this... thanks ya..

Where did you get this last table? How, explain more? 1 contaions 3 ? whats is that suppose to mean?

Mitja

I get after my combination. 1 contain 3 is mean in that set of data 1 appear 3 times.
Now i want to read and count the set of data that i gave in the above post.

key
1 2
1 3
1 4
2 3
2 4
3 4

now i want to count each items...but i don't have any ideas to do that...

[Mitja Bonca]

Whaz I dont understand also, if the sorting (yout last request). I dont get it why you changed the 3 and 2.
Maybe would be a good idea to explain what all these numbers mean, and what is the connection between them.

I will add additional row to ask you if I understand this correctly:
Lets say we have on beginning:
1 2
1 3
1 4
2 3
3 4
5 3

The output would be:
1 2
3 1 //here chnages, becuase 3 has 4 prepetitions
1 4
3 2 //here too
3 4
3 5 //and here

Am I right?

Man I did it - finally. It works like charm.
Here`s the code:

class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            List<Values> list = new List<Values>();
            Dictionary<int, int> dic = new Dictionary<int, int>();

            using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(@"C:\1\test22.txt"))
            {
                string line;
                while ((line = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
                {
                    string[] _split = line.Split(new string[] { " " }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);

                    Values v = new Values();
                    for (int i = 0; i < _split.Length; i++)
                    {
                        int number = Convert.ToInt32(_split[i]);

                        //1. adding a number to common list<T>:
                        if (i == 0)
                            v.Value1 = number;
                        else
                            v.Value2 = number;

                        //2. adding number to a dictionary:
                        if (dic.ContainsKey(number))
                            dic = dic.ToDictionary(d => d.Key, d => d.Key == number ? d.Value + 1 : d.Value);
                        else
                            dic.Add(number, 1);
                    }
                    //1.1 adding values of both numbers to the list<T>:
                    list.Add(v);
                }
            }

            //arranging the array:
            foreach (Values v in list)
            {
                int value1 = v.Value1;
                int value2 = v.Value2;
                int value1Rep = 0;
                int value2Rep = 0;                
                foreach (KeyValuePair<int, int> kvp in dic)
                {
                    if (kvp.Key == value1)
                        value1Rep = kvp.Value;
                    else if (kvp.Key == value2)
                    {
                        value2Rep = kvp.Value;
                        break;
                    }
                }
                if (value2Rep > value1Rep)
                {
                    v.Value1 = value2;
                    v.Value2 = value1;
                }

                //show the result:
                Console.WriteLine("{0} - {1}", v.Value1, v.Value2);
            }
            Console.ReadLine();
        }       
    }
    class Values
    {
        public int Value1 { get; set; }
        public int Value2 { get; set; }
    }

Tell me what do you think.

[Kath_Fish]

U concept is what i want to say..But i use string to my program and do not use List<T> and Dictionary...

[Kath_Fish]

i will try it...and thanks for your help..

[Kath_Fish]

i want to ask how to display the result using message box..? because i tried many times the result display using message box.

[Mitja Bonca]

Ok, wait a bit.

[Mitja Bonca]

TI have converted the app. to Win form application. Now the result is shown in messageBox:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

        }

        private void Method()
        {
            List<Values> list = new List<Values>();
            Dictionary<int, int> dic = new Dictionary<int, int>();

            string strPath = @"C:\1\test22.txt";
            using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(strPath))
            {
                string line;
                while ((line = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
                {
                    string[] _split = line.Split(new string[] { " " }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);

                    Values v = new Values();

                        //1. adding a number to common list<T>:
                        if (i == 0)
                            v.Value1 = number;
                        else
                            v.Value2 = number;

                        //2. adding number to a dictionary:
                        if (dic.ContainsKey(number))
                            dic = dic.ToDictionary(d => d.Key, d => d.Key == number ? d.Value + 1 : d.Value);
                        else
                            dic.Add(number, 1);
                    }
                    //1.1 adding values of both numbers to the list<T>:
                    list.Add(v);
                }
            }

            //arranging the array:

            string allText = null;
            foreach (Values v in list)
            {
                int value1 = v.Value1;
                int value2 = v.Value2;
                int value1Rep = 0;
                int value2Rep = 0;
                foreach (KeyValuePair<int, int> kvp in dic)
                {
                    if (kvp.Key == value1)
                        value1Rep = kvp.Value;
                    else if (kvp.Key == value2)
                    {
                        value2Rep = kvp.Value;
                        break;
                    }
                }
                if (value2Rep > value1Rep)
                {
                    v.Value1 = value2;
                    v.Value2 = value1;
                }

                //show the result:
                allText += v.Value1 + " - " + v.Value2 + Environment.NewLine;
            }
            MessageBox.Show("This is the result:\n\n" + allText);

        }
    }

    class Values
    {
        public int Value1 { get; set; }
        public int Value2 { get; set; }
    }
}

btw, I strongly suggest you to use Colections, like Dictionary and generic List<T> in such cases. You will make your life WAAAAY easier. Dont even think of doing such a code with a simple using of objects. Believe me.
Slowly examin my code, and do some other examples that you get a touch of how it works and so on. But it will take time to undersand all.

Hope it helps,
Mitja

[Kath_Fish]

Still cannot run ....haiz...btw..thanks for helping me..

[Mitja Bonca]

How you cannot run? Whats the matter? I cannot understand what is wrong, becuase it should work. Please tell me.

Now, my program contain Key and Value.I thought can do separately but is wrong. I need to rearrange the Items of key without touch the Value..

for example,
Key Value
1 2 2
1 2 3 1
2 3 2
2 4 1
2 4 5 2

Now, i wan to read each item and count the frequency for each item.
Item Frequency
1 2
2 5
3 2
4 2
5 1

After that,I have to sort each item in each row from highest frequency to lowest.
Key Value
2 1 2
2 1 3 1
2 3 2
2 4 1
2 4 5 2

I want to do like this....So now, I stuck ..

I try your code already.Its work.Thank ya...But, now i got many item now..i no idea to change them
for example:
Key
1 2
1 2 3
1 2 3 4
1 2 4
2 3
2 4 5
2 4 5 6
.....
if like this, how i sort them in highest to lowest..You got any idea?

[Mitja Bonca]

Just follow the pattern I did for 2 "column". Add new property in the class, and re-work the code in the Dictionary.
No big deal.

[Kath_Fish]

because i not familiar with Dictionary function....

[Mitja Bonca]

Try mate, try. Get some books or something. Otherwise you will never learn. I showed you how it needs to be done. You simply study my example and add whats needed.
Come on...

[Kath_Fish]

okok.....thanks ya...because now i am rushing to pass up this project..

[Kath_Fish]

Try mate, try. Get some books or something. Otherwise you will never learn. I showed you how it needs to be done. You simply study my example and add whats needed.
Come on...

I really do not know how to change your code to add in my program..now stuck already...

[Mitja Bonca]

Please mark this thread as answered, because it was ANSWERED already (at least regarding the thread`s title).
And get serious (and books too).
