A function that checks for how many times each element appears in an array

Question

I am making a function that lists an array and says how many times each element appears.

What I have thought of on my own so far is i should loop through the array and t

I have posted a pseudocode, to help you with the algorithm which you said you are unable to understand. I hope this will encourage you to start the code.

//store the first number in a variable and find 
//how many times it occurs in the array, repeat this for all
//the elements in the array

int current = arr[0];  
int i=0, count=0;  

for(i=0; i < arr.length;i++){ // loop through all the elements of the array

     if(arr[i]==current)   {
         count++;  // if current number is same as the number you are looking for
                   // then increment the counter
   } // end of if-loop
}
