get frequency of letters java code example

Example 1: java count frequency of characters in a string

public class Frequency   
{  
     public static void main(String[] args) {  
        String str = "picture perfect";  
        int[] freq = new int[str.length()];  
        int i, j;  
          
        //Converts given string into character array  
        char string[] = str.toCharArray();  
          
        for(i = 0; i <str.length(); i++) {  
            freq[i] = 1;  
            for(j = i+1; j <str.length(); j++) {  
                if(string[i] == string[j]) {  
                    freq[i]++;             
                    //Set string[j] to 0 to avoid printing visited character  
                    string[j] = '0';  
                }  
            }  
        }  
        //Displays the each character and their corresponding frequency  
        System.out.println("Characters and their corresponding frequencies");  
        for(i = 0; i <freq.length; i++) {  
            if(string[i] != ' ' && string[i] != '0')  
                System.out.println(string[i] + "-" + freq[i]);  
        }  
    }  
}

Example 2: get frequency of letters java

HashMap<Character, Integer> map = new HashMap<Character, Integer>();
String s = "aasjjikkk";
for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
    char c = s.charAt(i);
    Integer val = map.get(c);
    if (val != null) {
        map.put(c, new Integer(val + 1));
    }
    else {
       map.put(c, 1);
   }
}

Example 3: frequency of letters in english java

Map<Character, Long> frequency =
            str.chars()
               .mapToObj(c -> (char)c)
               .collect(Collectors.groupingBy(Function.identity(), Collectors.counting()));
