I have the following code, that I think should work, but in the println am getting the error message:

Multiple markers at this line:

• The method letterFrequencies(String) in the type LetterFrequencies is not applicable for the arguments ()




• input cannot be resolved to a variable

'public class LetterFrequencies
{'

public static void main(String args)
 
 // TODO Auto-generated method stub
 String str = "I love programming ";

 System.out.println (letterFrequencies(input));
 

 public static int timesCharOccurs (String str, char character) 
 
 int timesOccurs = 0;

 String str2 = str.toLowerCase();
 char charArray = str2.toCharArray(); // Turns the String into Char
 for (int i=0; i<str2.length(); i++) // Loops for the number of Chars as transformed
 
 if (charArray[i] == character) 
 
 timesOccurs ++;
 
 
 return timesOccurs;
 

 public int letterFrequencies (String input)
 
 int occuranceValues = new int[26];
 char alphabetArray = 
 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h', 'i', 'j', 'k', 'l', 'm', 'n',
 'o', 'p', 'q', 'r', 's', 't', 'u', 'v', 'w', 'x', 'y', 'z';

 for (int i=0; i < alphabetArray.length; i++)
 
 char letter = alphabetArray[i];
 occuranceValues[i] = timesCharOccurs(input, letter);
 
 return occuranceValues;
 

What I think should be happening is the print line should return the array in the letterFrequencies method, but cannot seem to get it accepted

I am doing it this particular way as it is a problem from my Java Lab.

appreciate any help

Your variable in main is named str (not input). Change

System.out.println (letterFrequencies(input));

to

System.out.println (Arrays.toString(letterFrequencies(str)));

or

String input = "I love programming ";
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(letterFrequencies(input)));

And I get

[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 2, 0, 0, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0]
