So I have a program that opens a file "input.txt" which contains a list of names. I have multiple methods in order to organize the names, capitalize accordingly, and display them. What I am having trouble on is in the output aspect of the program. When I use the countOccurrence method which I will have shown below, it correctly counts how many times each name appears in the list whether it is a first or last name. The problem is it not displaying the count the way I want it to. I will have the output I get and the output I want shown below and if anyone can help that would greatly appreciated.
public class Names {
public static void display(ArrayList<String> names) {
for (int i = 0; i < names.size(); i = i + 1) {
System.out.println(names.get(i));
}
}
public static int find(String s, ArrayList<String> a) {
for (int i = 0; i < a.size(); i = i + 1) {
String str = a.get(i);
if (str.equals(s)) {
return i;
}
}
return -1;
}
public static void capitalize(ArrayList<String> names) {
for (int i = 0; i < names.size(); i = i + 1) {
String name = names.get(i);
if (!name.isEmpty()) {
String firstLetter = "" + name.charAt(0);
names.set(i, firstLetter.toUpperCase() + name.substring(1).toLowerCase());
}
}
}
public static void sort(ArrayList<String> names) {
for (int i = 0; i < names.size() - 1; i = i + 1) {
int Min = i;
for (int j = i + 1; j < names.size(); j = j + 1) {
if (names.get(j).compareTo(names.get(Min)) < 0) {
Min = j;
}
}
String tmp = names.get(i);
names.set(i, names.get(Min));
names.set(Min, tmp);
}
}
public static void getNames(ArrayList<String> fn, ArrayList<String> ln) throws IOException {
Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("What is the input flie?");
String names = kb.next();
File inpFile = new File(names);
Scanner in = new Scanner(inpFile);
while (in.hasNext()) {
String firstName = in.next();
String lastName = in.next();
fn.add(firstName);
ln.add(lastName);
}
}
private static int countOccurence(String name,ArrayList<String> names){
int count = 0;
for(int i =0; i < names.size(); i++){
if(name.equalsIgnoreCase(names.get(i))){
count++;
}
}
return count;
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
ArrayList<String> first = new ArrayList<>();
ArrayList<String> last = new ArrayList<>();
getNames(first, last);
capitalize(first);
capitalize(last);
ArrayList<String> allNames = new ArrayList<>();
for (int i = 0; i < first.size(); i++) {
allNames.add(last.get(i) + ", " + first.get(i));
}
System.out.println("*******All Names******");
sort(allNames);
display(allNames);
System.out.println("\n*****First Name Count***");
sort(first);
for(int i =0; i < first.size(); i++){
int count = countOccurence(first.get(i), first);
System.out.println(first.get(i) + " " + count + " times.");
}
System.out.println("\n****Last Name Count****");
sort(last);
for(int i =0; i < last.size(); i++){
int count = countOccurence(last.get(i), last);
System.out.println(last.get(i) + " " + count + " times.");
}
System.out.println("\n****All Names Count****");
sort(allNames);
for(int i =0; i < last.size(); i++){
int count = countOccurence(allNames.get(i), allNames);
System.out.println(allNames.get(i) + " " + count);

There are two ways to solve this:
The second way is much more useful, so here goes an example for that:
ArrayList<String> tmp = new ArrayList<String>();
for(int i =0; i < first.size(); i++){
if(!tmp.contains(first.get(i))) {
int count = countOccurence(first.get(i), first);
System.out.println(first.get(i) + " " + count + " times.");
tmp.add(first.get(i));
}
}
If you're using the tmp variable multiple times, don't forget to clear() it.
