Counting the number of elements with the values of x in a vector

Question

I have a vector of numbers:

numbers <- c(4,23,4,23,5,43,54,56,657,67,67,435,
         453,435,324,34,456,56,567,65,34,435)

How can I hav

Answer 1

One more way i find convenient is:

numbers <- c(4,23,4,23,5,43,54,56,657,67,67,435,453,435,324,34,456,56,567,65,34,435)
(s<-summary (as.factor(numbers)))

This converts the dataset to factor, and then summary() gives us the control totals (counts of the unique values).

Output is:

4   5  23  34  43  54  56  65  67 324 435 453 456 567 657 
2   1   2   2   1   1   2   1   2   1   3   1   1   1   1 

This can be stored as dataframe if preferred.

as.data.frame(cbind(Number = names(s),Freq = s), stringsAsFactors=F, row.names = 1:length(s))

here row.names has been used to rename row names. without using row.names, column names in s are used as row names in new dataframe

Output is:

     Number Freq
1       4    2
2       5    1
3      23    2
4      34    2
5      43    1
6      54    1
7      56    2
8      65    1
9      67    2
10    324    1
11    435    3
12    453    1
13    456    1
14    567    1
15    657    1
