To gather info on word frequency in a document.
This one is fast. I use arrays of bytes instead of strings to speed up the program. Compared to a string based version (like the one posted by lordaych, on 2/25/02 - called "Word Frequency Analyser"), this version is up to 40 times as fast.
Inputs
Input to be parsed is pasted into a textbox, so there are size limitations. A 30kb file will work, a 60 kb file will not.
Side Effects
Loss of hat, due to the blinding speed.
(Hold on to your hat!)
