This may be an overly retarded question, but its late and I hardly get sleep so my brain isn't functioning atm. For example if the list reads dog cat elephant dog dog squirrel cat whale frog dog If you wanted to count the number of instances of "dog" the output would be 4. Edited by GamesterXIII n/a

Note that the list is 0-based, not 1-based.
