NodeBox 3From the old forum
Hi guys,
Picked up Nodebox again after a 2 year intermezzo. Been working my way through the tutorials (which is going well).
But, please, help me out with this:
How am I able to count every unique value within a list?
I have two lists. They both consist out of years (see attachment). I'm trying to connect the values of both lists through a line. It can only work when I'm able to count the unique values, I think.
Thanks in advance!

You could try a distinct node, which filters out all double values, and
then add a count node afterwards.

Hi Frederik,
Sorry, I guess I have to refrase myself.
I want to count the amount of appearances of one value inside a list. The amount of appearances of every - what I called - "unique" value.
Is it possible?
Thanx again.
Mark
The easiest way to do this is using a custom node, which I've attached here, that counts the distinct elements.
Best,
F
