Complicated Counting

[lpxxfaintxx]

Hello,

I have a variable that looks like this:

[!--quoteo--][div class=\'quotetop\']QUOTE[/div][div class=\'quotemain\'][!--quotec--]0lil alx9d1, BagFullOfRic, YOURMOM, fdndfnfd , fdndfnfd , fdndfnfd, fdndfnfd, fdndfnfd, fdndfnfd, sleeperpick10, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice74, iix3JAD0REuU, iix3JAD0REuU, sinwillsin, sportzr4me18, sleeperpick10, BaSkEtBaLLQT8674, xpjisuuus, BagFullOfShyt, %n, %n, BagFullOfRice, Patelk0014, Patelk0014, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, , Patelk0014, flirtyazngrl09, bigshot9214, bigshot9214, bigshot9214, mnkmnkz16, bleausky22312, , , fashnFrEEk92, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, , xbsbdfbdbfdbfd, xbsbdfbdbfdbfd, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, , BagFullOfRice, %n, BagFullOfRice, %n, %n, , BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, %n, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, %n, BagFullOfRice, %n, BagFullOfRice, %n, BagFullOfShyt, BagFullOfShyt, BagFullOfShyt, rubberducky9314, rubberducky9314, rubberducky9314, %n, %n, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, %n, Patelk0014, rubberducky9314, bigshot9214, bigshot9214, %n, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice[/quote]


Is it possible to count how many of the same names are in there?

For example:

(echoed out text)

0lil alx9d1 (1)
sleeperpick10 (2)
BagFullOfRice (34)
%n (27)
bigshot9214 (3)


Where the number in the parentheses is how many of the same names are in the variable.

Regards,

Yes, there is....

[code]<?PHP
$var00 = "0lil alx9d1, BagFullOfRic, YOURMOM, fdndfnfd , fdndfnfd , fdndfnfd, fdndfnfd, fdndfnfd, fdndfnfd, sleeperpick10, BagFullOfRice,BagFullOfRice74, iix3JAD0REuU, iix3JAD0REuU, sinwillsin, sportzr4me18, sleeperpick10, BaSkEtBaLLQT8674, xpjisuuus,BagFullOfShyt, %n, %n, BagFullOfRice, Patelk0014, Patelk0014, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, , Patelk0014, flirtyazngrl09, bigshot9214, bigshot9214, bigshot9214, mnkmnkz16, bleausky22312, , , fashnFrEEk92, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, , xbsbdfbdbfdbfd, xbsbdfbdbfdbfd, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, , BagFullOfRice, %n, BagFullOfRice, %n, %n, , BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, %n, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, %n, BagFullOfRice, %n, BagFullOfRice, %n, BagFullOfShyt, BagFullOfShyt, BagFullOfShyt, rubberducky9314, rubberducky9314, rubberducky9314, %n, %n, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, %n, Patelk0014, rubberducky9314, bigshot9214, bigshot9214, %n, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice, BagFullOfRice";

###########
# convert the variable to an array

$var02 = explode(",",$var00);

?>
<pre>
<?PHP

print_r(array_count_values($var02));
?>
</pre>
<?PHP


?>[/code]

note that due to spaces in your variable it will appear that some of the elements are duplicated. to resolve this remove all spaces from the variable BEFORE you convert it to an array

Lite...

Thanks!, but the results is this:


[!--quoteo--][div class=\'quotetop\']QUOTE[/div][div class=\'quotemain\'][!--quotec--]Array( [0lil alx9d1] => 1 [ BagFullOfRic] => 1 [ YOURMOM] => 1 [ fdndfnfd ] => 2 [ fdndfnfd] => 4 [ sleeperpick10] => 2 [ BagFullOfRice] => 42 [BagFullOfRice74] => 1 [ iix3JAD0REuU] => 2 [ sinwillsin] => 1 [ sportzr4me18] => 1 [ BaSkEtBaLLQT8674] => 1 [ xpjisuuus] => 1 [BagFullOfShyt] => 1 [ %n] => 13 [ Patelk0014] => 4 [ ] => 6 [ flirtyazngrl09] => 1 [ bigshot9214] => 5 [ mnkmnkz16] => 1 [ bleausky22312] => 1 [ fashnFrEEk92] => 1 [ xbsbdfbdbfdbfd] => 2 [ BagFullOfShyt] => 3 [ rubberducky9314] => 4).
[/quote]

Is there any way I can make it more neat, like


0lil alx9d1 (1) <br>
BagFullOfRic (1) <br>
YOURMOM] (1) <br>
fdndfnfd (2) <br>
fdndfnfd (4) <br>
sleeperpick10 (2) <br>
BagFullOfRice] (42) <br>
BagFullOfRice74] (1) <br>

Or at least:

iix3JAD0REuU] => 2
sinwillsin] => 1
sportzr4me18] => 1
BaSkEtBaLLQT8674] => 1
xpjisuuus] => 1
BagFullOfShyt] => 1



Thanks.

Surround the print_r() with the '<pre>' & '</pre>' tags:
[code]<?php
$var02 = explode(",",$var00);
echo '<pre>' .  print_r(array_count_values($var02),true) . '</pre>';
?>[/code]

Or you can use a foreach
[code]<?php
$var02 = explode(",",$var00);
foreach ($var02 as $k => $v)
    $var02[$k] = trim($v);
$var04 = array_count_values($var02);

foreach ($var04 as $k => $v)
    echo $k . ' (' . $v . ')<br>';

?>[/code]
