I am having a bit of trouble working on a program in Java. The objective I am trying to complete here is to count all the occurrences of a text file, and assign the number of each occurrence into a one dimensional integer array. Here is my code. ----------------- public static int countLetters(String token, char letter) { int counter = 0; for (int n = 0; n < token.length(); n++) if (token.charAt(n) == letter) counter++; return counter; } public static int[] frequency() throws IOException { int [] letters = new int[26]; String alphabet = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"; Scanner inFile = new Scanner(new File("text.txt")); String token = ""; while (inFile.hasNext()) { token = inFile.next(); token = token.toLowerCase(); for (int n = 0; n < alphabet.length(); n++) { int counter = countLetters(token, alphabet.charAt(n)); letters[n] = counter; } } return letters; }

Change the following statement From letters[n] = counter; to letters[n] = letters[n]+counter;
