simple_hash

Instructions

Create a function named word_frequency_counter which will receive a vector of strings (each string being a single word) and return an HashMap with the word as the key and the number of repetitions as the value.

Also create a function named nb_distinct_words which will take a reference to the HashMap and return the number of distinct words present in it.

Expected functions

pub fn word_frequency_counter(words: Vec<&str>) -> HashMap<&str, usize> {}

pub fn nb_distinct_words(frequency_count: &HashMap<&str, usize>) -> usize {
}

Usage

Here is a program to test your function.

use simple_hash::*;
use std::collections::HashMap;

fn main() {
    let sentence = "this is a very basic sentence with only few \
                repetitions. once again this is very basic and \
                but it should be enough for basic tests".to_string();
    let words = sentence.split(" ").collect::<Vec<&str>>();

    let frequency_count = word_frequency_counter(words);
    println!("{:?}", frequency_count);
    println!("{}", nb_distinct_words(&frequency_count));
}

And its output
