Counting number of pairs in an integer array












0












$begingroup$


So, I wanted to have the count for number of pairs of same integer there are in an array for which I used a HashMap



Input contains two lines:






  1. Integer n:



    Signifies the size of input



  2. Input numbers separated by white space character:

    E.g 4 6 6 7 7 8 7 6 4





For the same input,




Expected Output:



3




import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class SockMerchant {

public int returnsockArr() {
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
int arraySize = sc.nextInt();
int sockArr = new int[arraySize];
for(int i = 0;i <= arraySize-1; i++) {
sockArr[i] = sc.nextInt();
}
sc.close();
return sockArr;
}

public int returnCount(Map<String, Object> mapCount) {
int count = 0;
for(String keyName : mapCount.keySet()) {
int value = (int)mapCount.get(keyName);
count = count+(value/2);
}
return count;
}

public int setMapAndReturnCount(int sockArr) {
Map<String, Object> mapCount = new HashMap<String, Object>();
for(int j = 0;j<= sockArr.length-1;j++) {
if(mapCount.containsKey(Integer.toString(sockArr[j]))) {
mapCount.put(Integer.toString(sockArr[j]), (int)mapCount.get(Integer.toString(sockArr[j]))+1);
}
else {
mapCount.put(Integer.toString(sockArr[j]), 1);
}
}
return returnCount(mapCount);
}

public static void main(String args) {
SockMerchant sm = new SockMerchant();
int sockArr = sm.returnsockArr();
int finalCount = sm.setMapAndReturnCount(sockArr);
System.out.println(finalCount);
}
}


I think that I have complicated the solution a bit too much



Is there a better approach to do the same thing?
