"Letter frequency" is not the same as "letter occurences". The title hints that more is needed in the task description. It would seem that some description of output is required as well. --[[User:Demivec|Demivec]] 16:43, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

== a few remarks for Rexx ==

A few typos:
carraiage -> carriage
occurances -> occurrences
independant -> independent

and some more substantial observations:
y=d2x(L); if @.up.y==0 then iterate /*zero count? Then ignore letter*/
c=d2c(L) /*C is the hex version of of char*/

In such cases I use cnt.0up.y so that a possible variable up never interferes
actually y is the hex version , drop one ‘of’

@.=0 /*wouldn't it be neat to use Θ ? */
why not use cnt. ?

In the discussion I read:
“Case sensitivity? Count what you get without applying any uppercase/lowercase filters”

upper c -> c=translate(c) would help for other Rexxes (in particular ooRexx)
