I\'m trying to figure out a way to count how often one value appears in an ArrayList.

Answer 1

Collections.frequency

You have this feature already available from Collections class, in the frequency method.

public static int frequency(Collection<?> c, Object o)

That will return the number of occurrences of a specific object inside a collection.

Mind that without providing a vaild equals method this won't work or at least won't work with the equality you have in mind, since Java does't know your meaning of equality.
