How can I get the count of how many times a string appears in my list? [closed]

$begingroup$


I have a list of strings, like so:



{"aa bb", "cc dd", "aa bb", "aa bb", "cc dd", "ww ss", "ss ss", "kk mm"}


I know WordCounts will return the numbers of every single word, but I want to the word group numbers, i.e., "aa bb" 3 times, and "cc dd" 2 times. How can I do this?

          You can try Tally



          lst = {"aa bb", "cc dd", "aa bb", "aa bb", "cc dd", "ww ss", "ss ss",   "kk mm"};
          
Tally[lst]


          Mathematica graphics



          Edit by m_goldberg



          As J.M. says in his comment below, Counts will give the same information as an association.



          Counts[data]



          <|"aa bb" -> 3, "cc dd" -> 2, "ww ss" -> 1, "ss ss" -> 1, "kk mm" -> 1|>




          This is equivalent to 



          Rule @@@ Tally[data] // Association

          Probability when a professor distributes a quiz and homework assignment to a class of n students.

          Image
          0 0 $begingroup$ Need help with this problem. Suppose our lazy professor collects a quiz and a homework assignment from a class of n students one day, then distributes both the quizzes and the homework assignments back to the class in a random fashion for grading. Each student receives one quiz and one homework assignment to grade. (a) What is the probability that every student receives someone else's quiz to grade, and someone else's homework to grade? (b) What is the probability that no student receives both their own quiz and their own homework assignment to grade? In this case, some students may receive their own quiz, and others may receive their own homework assignment. (c) Compute the limiting probability as n approaches infinity in each case. ...
