I'm new to Java and very confused.
I have a large dataset of length 4 int[]
and I want to count the number of times
that each particular combination of 4 integers occurs. This is very similar to counting word frequencies in a document.
I want to create a Map<int[], double>
that maps each int[] to a running count as the list is iterated over, but Map doesn't take primitive types.
so I made Map<Integer[], Double>
my data is stored as an ArrayList<int[]>
so my loop should be something like
ArrayList<int[]> data = ... // load a dataset`
Map<Integer[], Double> frequencies = new HashMap<Integer[], Double>();
for(int[] q : data) {
// **DO SOMETHING TO convert q from int[] to Integer[] so I can put it in the map
if(frequencies.containsKey(q)) {
frequencies.put(q, tfs.get(q) + p);
} else {
frequencies.put(q, p);
}
}
I'm not sure what code I need at the comment to make this work to convert an int[]
to an Integer[]
. Or maybe I'm fundamentally confused about the right way to do this.
