I have an integer array crr_array and I want to count elements, which occur repeatedly. First, I read the size of the array and initialize it with numbers read from the console. In the array new_array, I store the elements that are repeated. The array times stores the number of consecutive occurrences of an element. Then, I try to search for the repeating sequences and print them in a specific format. However, it does not work.

// Get integer array size
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter array size: ");
int size = input.nextInt();

int[] crr_array = new int[size];
int[] new_array= new int[size];
int[] times = new int[size];

// Read integers from the console
System.out.println("Enter array elements: ");
for (int i = 0; i < crr_array.length; i++) {
    crr_array[i] = input.nextInt();
    times[i] = 1;
}

// Search for repeated elements
for (int j = 0; j < crr_array.length; j++) {
    for (int i = j; i < crr_array.length; i++) {
        if (crr_array[j] == crr_array[i] && j != i) {
            new_array[i] = crr_array[i];
            times[i]++;
        }
    }
}



//Printing output
for (int i = 0; i <  new_array.length; i++) {
    System.out.println("\t" + crr_array[i] + "\t" +  new_array[i] + "\t" + times[i]);

}

I want the output to look like this:

There are <count_of_repeated_element_sequences> repeated numbers 
<repeated_element>: <count> times
...

For example:

There are 3 repeated numbers:
22: 2 times
4: 3 times
1: 2 times

How can I find the repeated elements and their counts? How can I print them as shown above?

This kind of problems can be easy solved by dictionaries (HashMap in Java).

  // The solution itself 
  HashMap<Integer, Integer> repetitions = new HashMap<Integer, Integer>();

  for (int i = 0; i < crr_array.length; ++i) {
      int item = crr_array[i];

      if (repetitions.containsKey(item))
          repetitions.put(item, repetitions.get(item) + 1);
      else
          repetitions.put(item, 1);
  }

  // Now let's print the repetitions out
  StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

  int overAllCount = 0;

  for (Map.Entry<Integer, Integer> e : repetitions.entrySet()) {
      if (e.getValue() > 1) {
          overAllCount += 1;

          sb.append("\n");
          sb.append(e.getKey());
          sb.append(": ");
          sb.append(e.getValue());
          sb.append(" times");
      }
  }

  if (overAllCount > 0) {
      sb.insert(0, " repeated numbers:");
      sb.insert(0, overAllCount);
      sb.insert(0, "There are ");
  }

  System.out.print(sb.toString());

I was wanting to use only basics I wish if you can help me without java classes
thanks again I tryed it like that ////////// How can i send to you that this comment can't allow me to paste the code
You are genius sir that post really helped me in my assignment. Thanks a lot.

If you have values in a short set of possible values then you can use something like Counting Sort

If not you have to use another data structure like a Dictionary, in java a Map

int[] array
Map<Integer, Integer> 

where Key = array value for example array[i] and value = a counter

Example:

int[] array = new int [50];
Map<Integer,Integer> counterMap = new HashMap<>();

//fill the array

    for(int i=0;i<array.length;i++){
         if(counterMap.containsKey(array[i])){
          counterMap.put(array[i], counterMap.get(array[i])+1 );
         }else{
          counterMap.put(array[i], 1);
         }
    }

You need to run a test for this code, it does not seem to produce any results because the code after continue; is unreachable.

for (int i = 0; i < x.length; i++) {

    for (int j = i + 1; j < x.length; j++) {

        if (x[i] == x[j]) {
            y[i] = x[i];
            times[i]++;
        }

    }

You have to use or read about associative arrays, or maps,..etc. Storing the the number of occurrences of the repeated elements in array, and holding another array for the repeated elements themselves, don't make much sense.

Your problem in your code is in the inner loop

 for (int j = i + 1; j < x.length; j++) {

        if (x[i] == x[j]) {
            y[i] = x[i];
            times[i]++;
        }

    }

with O(n log(n))

int[] arr1; // your given array
int[] arr2 = new int[arr1.length];
Arrays.sort(arr1);

for (int i = 0; i < arr1.length; i++) {
    arr2[i]++;
    if (i+1 < arr1.length) 
    {
        if (arr1[i] == arr1[i + 1]) {
            arr2[i]++;
            i++;
        }
    }
}

for (int i = 0; i < arr1.length; i++) {
    if(arr2[i]>0)
    System.out.println(arr1[i] + ":" + arr2[i]);
}

This is O nlog(n). Not O(N).
hımm i thought second time, and it seems like o(n), i couldn't figured out O(log (n))
You are sorting the array before doing the processing. The overall complexity for an average case ( depends on the type of sorting by java) is O(N*LogN) + O(N) for the processing of the array.

call  by NumberMath.isContainDistinct(array) for find is it contains repeat or not

call by int[] repeat=NumberMath.NumberofRepeat(array) for find repeat count. Each location contains how many repeat corresponding value of array...
