Welcome back to our series on Standard Algorithms! Today, we're focusing on Period 15: Count Occurrences. Our main goal is to help you implement the "Count Occurrences" standard algorithm.What is Count Occurrences? 🔢We'll begin by defining the "Count Occurrences" algorithm and discussing its practical applications. This algorithm is designed to tally how many times a specific item appears in an array. For example, you could use it to count how many students received a certain grade, or to find the frequency of a number in a dataset. We’ll review example code that counts occurrences in a randomly generated array, which will give you a clear picture of how the algorithm works.Hands-on Practice & Assessment ✍️You'll get hands-on experience by typing up and testing the provided "Count Occurrences" example code. This will be followed by two tasks from your booklets: Task 9, Problem 1c from "Software Design and Development Booklet v1.4.pdf" and Task 3b from "Kings Park Booklet.pdf". These tasks will allow you to apply the algorithm to different datasets.For those who need a simpler starting point, we'll provide smaller arrays to practice on. For an extra challenge, we'll encourage you to modify the code to count items that meet a certain condition (e.g., counting all numbers greater than 25). Your understanding will be assessed through observation of your practical coding and a review of your output for the count occurrences tasks.
