create a Word Frequency Counter

[vinnyMS]

i have a script that counts the word frequency and displays it in an array table

 

i need it to write the results in a text file instead of an array table

 

here's the script

 

#Include <Array.au3>
#Include <Debug.au3>
#include <Constants.au3>
#include <AutoItConstants.au3>

Example()

Func Example()
$s = FileRead("2.txt")
ProgressOn ( "Word Frequency", "Counting", "Loading", Default, Default, 18 )
Local $w = StringRegExp($s, "(?s)(\b[[:alpha:]]{2,}\b)", 3)
_ArrayColInsert($w, 1)
For $i = 0 to UBound($w)-1
   ProgressSet (( $i/(UBound($w) - 1)) * 100, "processed", "word frequency" )
   StringRegExpReplace($s, '(?i)\b' & $w[$i][0] & '\b', $w[$i][0])
   $w[$i][1] = @extended
Next
ProgressSet(100, "Done", "Complete")
_ArraySort($w, 1, 0, 0, 1)
_DebugArrayDisplay($w, "Title", "|0:1", $ARRAYDISPLAY_NOROW)
; _DebugArrayDisplay($w, "Title", "|0:1")
; _DebugArrayDisplay($w, "Title", "|0:1", $ARRAYDISPLAY_NOROW)
$sMessage = ""
SplashTextOn("Counting words", $sMessage, -1, -1, -1, -1, $DLG_TEXTLEFT, "")
For $i = 1 To 0
    $sMessage = $sMessage & $i & @CRLF
Next
ProgressOff()
EndFunc   ;==>Example

So look at FileWrite/FileWriteLine/_FileWriteFromArray in the help file?

BTW, my pattern was not complete, I thought you would see that.  Anyway, for completeness to anyone looking at it :

Local $w = StringRegExp($s, '(*UCP)(?is)(\b[[:alpha:]]{2,}\b)(?!.*\b\1\b)', 3)

Sorry to bother, 

I'm not a programmer so it's very difficult to create to me. It requires a lot of edits.

 

Plz help

@vinnyMS This forum is dedicated to people who want to learn/improve at AutoIt scripting; it is not a place where you put in an order and someone just barfs up the code for you. If we did that, you'd never understand when you ran into a problem, or attempted to update the code

Take a look at the sections I suggested in the help file. Each has great examples that you can try out on your own. Once you have done so, if you're running into issues, post what you have tried and we will gladly steer you in the right direction.

Why not use a program to do the counting? I am sure there are many available.

But if you are doing this to learn programming then you should indeed follow JLogan's advice and start learning the language, you can use the help file and maybe some youtube videos

Where did you get that script from? (-:

I need it to write the results in a text file instead of an array table.

I'm not a programmer either, so how about this:

#Include <Array.au3>

$s = FileRead ("2.txt")
Local $w = StringRegExp ($s, "(?s)(\b[[:alpha:]]{2,}\b)", 3)
_ArrayColInsert($w, 1)
For $i = 0 to UBound ($w)-1
StringRegExpReplace ($s, '(?i)\b' & $w[$i][0] & '\b', $w[$i][0])
$w[$i][1] = @extended
Next
_ArraySort ($w, 1, 0, 0, 1)
$z1 = _ArrayToString ($w, @TAB, -1, -1, @CRLF, -1, -1)
FileWrite ("2_output1.txt", $z1)

$z2 = StringSplit ($z1, @CRLF, 1)
$z3 = _ArrayUnique ($z2)
$z4 = _ArrayToString ($z3, @CRLF)
FileWrite ("2_output2.txt", $z4)

(which is basically your script, with some stuff removed and some stuff added.)

Not the first time VinnyMS has been hit with such an allegation

 

 

[TheDcoder]

I hate homework and interview coding, there isn't much of a difference between both, they want some arbitrary twisted thing done instead of something practical. If I was good at those I would be doing math or spell bee competitions

Not exactly homework

 

That script was to use to extract text from hundreds of files and create a text list based on file content. Then the text extracted was to be replaced with text in another language. Extracted as Chinese and replaced by English. This way I could translate all those files by replacing the text from Chinese to English 

This other script is to create lists of top frequency to again replace from numbers to words. I work a lot with text file editing. I have all sort of ideas about programs

Come on, Vinny, ya know I’m just messin’ with ya!

That post was from before we really got started cranking out the hits.  

But by the end of the semester, we was all good, right?

Okay... erm... err... no, I don't see how you get from post #1 to post #2.

[vinnyMS]

post 1 is to create two lists, the before list and the after list
