Sorting numbers

[duofruo]

I have a file whith a list of numers like this for example

Code: Select all

1
49
2
6
18
49
3
8
7
1
46
1

I need a script that will show the most used numbers. In my example 1 and 49. Thx

if there is no lsearch feature for this i might suggest this way:

-check every lindex of your string, list, whatever
-if it cointains a number -> check for an array called myarray($number), if yes -> incr it by 1, if no -> create it and set it to 1

at the end you will have an array, and all his fields represent a number and how often they are used. then you just need a loop to sort (e.g. bubblesort) them and you're done

this is just one possible way, i'm sure there are easier ways (like with lsort -> stringlist and so on)
