Hello!
How can I add multiple variables from String?
ex:
a.1 = 'red apples'
a.2 = 'green apples'
a.3 = 'yellow bananas'
a.4 = 'red apples'
a.5 = 'yellow bananas'
desire output:
red apples 2
green apples 1
yellow bananas 2 |

You need mandatory attend training classes for beginners at your school. |

| I assume that by 'add' you mean 'concatenate', for that you use the concatenation operator || , which is described in the 'z/OS TSO/E REXX Reference' manual 'REXX General Concepts' section. |

| NO, the TS wants to count the occurrences of each stem value |

Sorry, but your statement is unclear. Perhaps you can restate it. |

there is certainly a language barrier
but the sample input and the expected output are clear enough to provide an answer |

Ah, I should have spent a few more minutes reading the question, it really is about counting,
That makes it much more interesting and relevant to this forum.
Here is my take on a solution:
| Code: |
a.1 = 'red apples'
a.2 = 'green apples'
a.3 = 'yellow bananas'
a.4 = 'red apples'
a.5 = 'yellow bananas'
a.0 = 5
count.=''
cn =0
do n=1 to a.0
v=a.n
if count.v='' then do /* new */
cn=cn+1
count.v=1
count.cn=v
end
else count.v=count.v+1
end
do n=1 to cn
v=count.n
say "Count of '"v"'="count.v
end |
