am working on a homework assignment and have got the vb running well. Except for one area where I am trying to determine the number of occurrences of a combination of letters "XY". All other instances of this works fine for individual letters.

I am in a "survey of programming languages" course and have a professor who doesn't teach. There is no text book for this course.I am working a VB Form project to take a URL, grab the HTML source code, parse out all words, and count the occurrences of each word on the page. I have built the form, and written the code to parse the words and store them in an array. What is the most efficient way to count the occurrences of each individual word in that array (case insensitive), sort the results decreasing from most frequent, and display the results of the ten most used words. I will be displaying the results in two separate listboxes on my form. 1 listbox shows the words, and the other shows the number of occurrences.

View 1 Repliesthere are any nifty in-built .net methods that can essentially return either the number of occurrences of each element in an array, or simply return the modal value.
View 7 RepliesQuoteWrite a Visual Basic Console Application which executes a Do-While loop repetitively. Each time the Do-While loop executes input a String value, count and display the number of occurrences of the letters �a�, �b�, �c�, �d� and �e�. Use at least one Select Case statement inside your Do-While loop. For example, suppose during one execution of the Do-While loop you input the following String value: �My mother is a great lady!�. Your program should input this value into a String variable, compute the number of times each of the letters �a�, �b�, �c�, �d� and �e� occurs and output the results: a � 3, b � 0, c � 0, d � 1, and e � 2. Terminate your Do-While loop once a value of �All Done!� is entered for the String value.
Here is my code:
Dim s1 As String
Dim a, b, c, d, e, count As Integer
Do While (s1 <> "all done")

My problem is an error that states Variable 'count' hides a variable in an enclosing block. Here is my project and my code so far:
1. Write a Visual Basic Console Application which executes a Do-While loop repetitively. Each time the Do-While loop executes input a String value, count and display the number of occurrences of the letters �a�, �b�, �c�, �d� and �e�. Use at least one Select Case statement inside your Do-While loop. For example, suppose during one execution of the Do-While loop you input the following String value: �My mother is a great lady!�. Your program should input this value into a String variable, compute the number of times each of the letters �a�, �b�, �c�, �d� and �e� occurs and output the results: a � 3, b � 0, c � 0, d � 1, and e � 2. Terminate your Do-While loop once a value of �All Done!� is entered for the String value.
2. In the same Visual Basic Console Application, following the Do-While loop described in step 1. above, enter another String value and modify it by replacing all occurrences of the word �hi� with �hello�; all occurrences of the word �today� with the word �tomorrow�; all occurrences of �hate� with �love�. Output both the original String value and the modified String value.
This is my code:
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim s1 As String
Dim a As Integer = 0
Dim b As Integer = 0

I'm having a hard time displaying the number of occurrences of the letters a,b,c,d,e I want to use IndexOf, but just don't understand how.

If the user clicks no then it closes the form, or if the user clicks save it saves the data and closes the form otherwise it does not close.

Im just trying to get a simple multi line label box counting numbers using vbCrLf.
Dim startNumber As Integer
For startNumber = 1 To 4
lblCount.text = "Number = " & startNumber & vbCrLf
Next startNumber
I just want something to display like this in a multi line label, not a textbox:
Number = 1
Number = 2
Number = 3
Number = 4
But... I keep getting something like:
Number = 4
I already turned auto size off and expanded the label.
I'm keeping track of some things that are numbered and others that are lettered; while NumericUpDown is perfect for selecting numbered things, I need an analogue for selecting lettered things. The obvious choice would be a listbox that just contains all the letters of the alphabet. But I need to show only the appropriate range of letters, so if I want to use a listbox, I need to write a function that populates the listbox with the first n letters of the alphabet; if n > 26, it should continue with aa, ab, and so on. How do I do this?
View 17 Replies a program is supposed to display the number of times a number occurs in a larger number. For example, iff the user enter 356, its supposed to show the numbers 0 thru 9 and say how many times the number occurs in the program. I am pretty sure somethings wrong with the first For loop, but I am not sure why it doesnt work, all it prints out are zeros.

I've googled for a while now, but I can't seem to find it.
I'm looking for a way to determine how many times a character occures within a string.
Let's say for example I want all comma's to be counted in the following string:
'122,333,222,11,44,55'
How can I retrieve the number of comma's? in example 5.
After executing a query with LINQ to SQL, the result I have is an arraylist (.ToList) of items with ID numbers. The number of items and their occurences will vary with each query. I would simply like to count the occurences of each specific ID in the list.
How do I do that??
The only count function I know of (.count() ) is for a count on the entire list. I've also I've been reading on how to loop through the list items but I don't understand how I can do that if I don't know how many specific ID's there will be from each query result.
I am new to VB.NET and I keep telling myself there must be a better way to do what I need to do several times a day which is look into a list and see if that one field is set to true anywhere in that list.
So far, I've been using the For Each statement:

But I know some of the other languages can do something like: if ListOfPlayers(*).isActive == true
which just seems more concise and to the point.

I'm scanning through all characters in a textbox. Then the program counts how many of each character is in the textbox. Here's the code which adds all characters to a list:
For each c as char in TxtBox

Everything's working fine, except this will also add returns to the list, which I don't want. I thought I could write like this:
If c <> chr(10) Then
list.add(c)

I'm using Streamwriter/Streamreader for the first time in this project and keep getting an "Argument out of Range Exception was unhandled" error.It says "length cannot be less than zero. Parameter name: length."This happens at "dblYearly Income." Also, how do I find out the number of occurrences of an item in an array? For instance, I have a Race combobox and need to find out how many occurrences there are for each race.Also, is there a way to count the number of occurrences of an array itself, I guess the upper index value?

View 7 RepliesI'm sorry if it's a duplicate of some question but this is specific on Vb.Net Regex function.
I need to remove any occurrence of 3 or more duplicate characters on a given string. For example:
Dim strTmp As String = "111111.......222222 and 33"
Dim output As String = Regex.Replace(strTmp, "????", "")
Debug.Print(output)
The "????" part I guess should be the Regex expression, which I must assume I know almost nothing about.
I don't know if that's the correct syntax. But I need the output to come as:
"1.2 and 33"
