ClassicCounter (Stanford CoreNLP API)

java.lang.Object
- edu.stanford.nlp.stats.ClassicCounter<E>

All Implemented Interfaces:

Counter<E>, PrettyLoggable, Serializable, Iterable<E>
```
public class ClassicCounter<E>
extends Object
implements Serializable, Counter<E>, Iterable<E>
```
A specialized kind of hash table (or map) for storing numeric counts for objects. It works like a Map, but with different methods for easily getting/setting/incrementing counts for objects and computing various functions with the counts. The Counter constructor and addAll method can be used to copy another Counter's contents over.
Implementation notes: You shouldn't casually add further methods to this interface. Rather, they should be added to the Counters class. Note that this class stores a totalCount field as well as the map. This makes certain operations much more efficient, but means that any methods that change the map must also update totalCount appropriately. If you use the setCount method, then you cannot go wrong. This class is not threadsafe: If multiple threads are accessing the same counter, then access should be synchronized externally to this class.

  - getFactory
```
public Factory<Counter<E>> getFactory()
```
    Returns a factory that can create new instances of this kind of Counter.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getFactory in interface Counter<E>
    
    Returns:
    A factory that can create new instances of this kind of Counter.
  - setDefaultReturnValue
```
public final void setDefaultReturnValue(double rv)
```
    Sets the default return value. This value is returned when you get the value for keys that are not in the Counter. It is zero by default, but can sometimes usefully by set to other values like Double.NaN or Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setDefaultReturnValue in interface Counter<E>
    
    Parameters:
    rv - The default value
  - defaultReturnValue
```
public double defaultReturnValue()
```
    Returns the default return value.
    
    Specified by:
    
    defaultReturnValue in interface Counter<E>
    
    Returns:
    The default return value.
  - getCount
```
public double getCount(Object key)
```
    Returns the count for this key as a double. This is the defaultReturnValue (0.0, if it hasn't been set) if the key hasn't previously been seen.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getCount in interface Counter<E>
    
    Parameters:
    key - The key
    
    Returns:
    The count
  - setCount
```
public void setCount(E key,
            double count)
```
    Sets the count for the given key to be the given value. This will replace any existing count for the key. To add to a count instead of replacing it, use Counter.incrementCount(Object,double).
    
    Specified by:
    
    setCount in interface Counter<E>
    
    Parameters:
    key - The key
    count - The count
  - incrementCount
```
public double incrementCount(E key,
                    double count)
```
    Increments the count for the given key by the given value. If the key hasn't been seen before, it is assumed to have count 0.0, and thus this method will set its count to the given amount. Note that this is true regardless of the setting of defaultReturnValue. Negative increments are equivalent to calling decrementCount. To more conveniently increment the count by 1.0, use Counter.incrementCount(Object). To set a count to a specific value instead of incrementing it, use Counter.setCount(Object,double).
    
    Specified by:
    
    incrementCount in interface Counter<E>
    
    Parameters:
    key - The key to increment
    count - The amount to increment it by
    
    Returns:
    The value associated with they key, post-increment.
  - incrementCount
```
public final double incrementCount(E key)
```
    Increments the count for this key by 1.0. If the key hasn't been seen before, it is assumed to have count 0.0, and thus this method will set its count to 1.0. Note that this is true regardless of the setting of defaultReturnValue. To increment the count by a value other than 1.0, use Counter.incrementCount(Object,double). To set a count to a specific value instead of incrementing it, use Counter.setCount(Object,double).
    
    Specified by:
    
    incrementCount in interface Counter<E>
    
    Parameters:
    key - The key to increment by 1.0
    
    Returns:
    The value associated with they key, post-increment.
  - decrementCount
```
public double decrementCount(E key,
                    double count)
```
    Decrements the count for this key by the given value. If the key hasn't been seen before, it is assumed to have count 0.0, and thus this method will set its count to the negative of the given amount. Note that this is true regardless of the setting of defaultReturnValue. Negative increments are equivalent to calling incrementCount. To more conveniently decrement the count by 1.0, use Counter.decrementCount(Object). To set a count to a specific value instead of decrementing it, use Counter.setCount(Object,double).
    
    Specified by:
    
    decrementCount in interface Counter<E>
    
    Parameters:
    key - The key to decrement
    count - The amount to decrement it by
    
    Returns:
    The value associated with they key, post-decrement.
  - decrementCount
```
public double decrementCount(E key)
```
    Decrements the count for this key by 1.0. If the key hasn't been seen before, it is assumed to have count 0.0, and thus this method will set its count to -1.0. Note that this is true regardless of the setting of defaultReturnValue. To decrement the count by a value other than 1.0, use Counter.decrementCount(Object,double). To set a count to a specific value instead of decrementing it, use Counter.setCount(Object,double).
    
    Specified by:
    
    decrementCount in interface Counter<E>
    
    Parameters:
    key - The key to decrement by 1.0
    
    Returns:
    The value of associated with they key, post-decrement.
  - logIncrementCount
```
public double logIncrementCount(E key,
                       double count)
```
    Increments the count stored in log space for this key by the given log-transformed value. If the current count for the key is v1, and you call logIncrementCount with a value of v2, then the new value will be log(e^v1 + e^v2). If the key hasn't been seen before, it is assumed to have count Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY, and thus this method will set its count to the given amount. Note that this is true regardless of the setting of defaultReturnValue. To set a count to a specific value instead of incrementing it, you need to first take the log yourself and then to call Counter.setCount(Object,double).
    
    Specified by:
    
    logIncrementCount in interface Counter<E>
    
    Parameters:
    key - The key to increment
    count - The amount to increment it by, in log space
    
    Returns:
    The value associated with they key, post-increment, in log space
  - addAll
```
public void addAll(Counter<E> counter)
```
    Adds the counts in the given Counter to the counts in this Counter. This is identical in effect to calling Counters.addInPlace(this, counter).
    
    Specified by:
    
    addAll in interface Counter<E>
    
    Parameters:
    counter - The Counter whose counts will be added. For each key in counter, if it is not in this, then it will be added with value counter.getCount(key). Otherwise, it will have value this.getCount(key) + counter.getCount(key).
  - remove
```
public double remove(E key)
```
    Removes the given key and its associated value from this Counter. Its count will now be returned as the defaultReturnValue and it will no longer be considered previously seen. If a key not contained in the Counter is given, no action is performed on the Counter and the defaultValue is returned. This behavior echoes that of HashMap, but differs since a HashMap returns a Double (rather than double) and thus returns null if a key is not present. Any future revisions of Counter should preserve the ability to "remove" a key that is not present in the Counter.
    
    Specified by:
    
    remove in interface Counter<E>
    
    Parameters:
    key - The key
    
    Returns:
    The value removed from the map or the default value if no count was associated with that key.
  - containsKey
```
public boolean containsKey(E key)
```
    Returns whether a Counter contains a key.
    
    Specified by:
    
    containsKey in interface Counter<E>
    
    Parameters:
    key - The key
    
    Returns:
    true iff key is a key in this Counter.
  - keySet
```
public Set<E> keySet()
```
    Returns the Set of keys in this counter.
    
    Specified by:
    
    keySet in interface Counter<E>
    
    Returns:
    The Set of keys in this counter.
  - values
```
public Collection<Double> values()
```
    Returns a copy of the values currently in this counter. (You should regard this Collection as read-only for forward compatibility; at present implementations differ on how they respond to attempts to change this Collection.)
    
    Specified by:
    
    values in interface Counter<E>
    
    Returns:
    A copy of the values currently in this counter.
  - entrySet
```
public Set<Map.Entry<E,Double>> entrySet()
```
    Returns a view of the entries in this counter. The values can be safely modified with setValue().
    
    Specified by:
    
    entrySet in interface Counter<E>
    
    Returns:
    A view of the entries in this counter
  - clear
```
public void clear()
```
    Removes all entries from the counter.
    
    Specified by:
    
    clear in interface Counter<E>
  - size
```
public int size()
```
    Returns the number of entries stored in this counter.
    
    Specified by:
    
    size in interface Counter<E>
    
    Returns:
    The number of entries in this counter.
  - totalCount
```
public double totalCount()
```
    Computes the total of all counts in this counter, and returns it as a double. (Existing implementations cache this value, so that this operation is cheap.)
    
    Specified by:
    
    totalCount in interface Counter<E>
    
    Returns:
    The total (arithmetic sum) of all counts in this counter.
  - iterator
```
public Iterator<E> iterator()
```
    This is a shorthand for keySet.iterator(). It's not really clear that this method should be here, as the Map interface has no such shortcut, but it's used in a number of places, and I've left it in for now. Use is discouraged.
    
    Specified by:
    
    iterator in interface Iterable<E>
    
    Returns:
    An Iterator over the keys in the Counter.
  - removeAll
```
public void removeAll(Collection<E> keys)
```
    Removes all the given keys from this Counter. Keys may be included that are not actually in the Counter - no action is taken in response to those keys. This behavior should be retained in future revisions of Counter (matches HashMap).
    
    Parameters:
    keys - The keys to remove from the Counter. Their values are subtracted from the total count mass of the Counter.
  - isEmpty
```
public boolean isEmpty()
```
    Returns whether a Counter has no keys in it.
    
    Returns:
    true iff a Counter has no keys in it.
  - equals
```
public boolean equals(Object o)
```
    Equality is defined over all Counter implementations. Two Counters are equal if they have the same keys explicitly stored with the same values.
    Note that a Counter with a key with value defaultReturnValue will not be judged equal to a Counter that is lacking that key. In order for two Counters to be correctly judged equal in such cases, you should call Counters.retainNonDefaultValues() on both Counters first.
    
    Overrides:
    
    equals in class Object
    
    Parameters:
    o - Object to compare for equality
    
    Returns:
    Whether this is equal to o
  - hashCode
```
public int hashCode()
```
    Returns a hashCode which is the underlying Map's hashCode.
    
    Overrides:
    
    hashCode in class Object
    
    Returns:
    A hashCode.
  - toString
```
public String toString()
```
    Returns a String representation of the Counter, as formatted by the underlying Map.
    
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Object
    
    Returns:
    A String representation of the Counter.
  - valueOfIgnoreComments
```
public static ClassicCounter<String> valueOfIgnoreComments(String s)
```
    Returns the Counter over Strings specified by this String. The String is often the whole contents of a file. The file can include comments if each line of comment starts with a hash (#) symbol, and does not contain any TAB characters. Otherwise, the format is one entry per line. Each line must contain precisely one tab separating a key and a value, giving a format of:
    StringKey\tdoubleValue\n
    
    Parameters:
    s - String representation of a Counter, where entries are one per line such that each line is either a comment (begins with #) or key \t value
    
    Returns:
    The Counter with String keys
  - fromString
```
public static ClassicCounter<String> fromString(String s)
```
    Converts from the format printed by the toString method back into a Counter<String>. The toString() doesn't escape, so this only works providing the keys of the Counter do not have commas or equals signs in them.
    
    Parameters:
    s - A String representation of a Counter
    
    Returns:
    The Counter
  - prettyLog
```
public void prettyLog(Redwood.RedwoodChannels channels,
             String description)
```
    Pretty logs the current object to specific Redwood channels.
    
    Specified by:
    
    prettyLog in interface PrettyLoggable
    
    Parameters:
    channels - the channels which should be logged to -- all logging calls should use logging methods on the channels (e.g. channels.log(), etc.)
    description - The description of the object. It will potentially identify the object's functional role or (failing that) its class. This is typically used as a track name surrounding the contents of this object.
