Count values in array.

[ultratoke]

I am having an issue with my scoring method for a game called Yahtzee that I am writing for my school. I am using an array to store the final dice roll in but need to find a way to count how many of the ints in the array are of the same value. I know there is a way to do this with a vector using count but we have not learned this yet really and I would have to completely re-do my entire code.

Is there a way to do this? I can't seem to wrap my head around a method to use. Once I have a way to count how many like valued ints are in the array I can figure the rest out.

 Ex: 
die[5] = {1,1,1,3,4};
//I want to now count how many of each value there is then store it.
int ones = 3;
int twos = 0;
int threes = 1;
int four = 1;
int fives = 0;
int sixes = 0;  

Something like this is what I am aiming for just don't know how to go about it.

You could do something like this:

int die[5] = {1,1,1,3,4};
int rolled[6] = {0,0,0,0,0,0};

// This line checks each dice for it's value
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i ++)
   // This line takes the value of each dice, subtracts 1 from it (because it's an
   // array), and increases that value's count
   rolled[(die[i] - 1)] ++;

for( size_t i = 0; i < 5; ++i )
{
    switch( die[ i ] )
    {
    case 1 :
        // increment ones variable
        break;
    case 2 :
        // increment twos variable
        break;
    // ...
}
