how to count number of times each word exist in a file
I'm trying to count the number of times each word in the file exist
for example if the file has:
today I have a lot to write, but I will not go for it. The main thing is that today I am looking for a way to get each word in this file with a word count after it specifying that this word has occured that number of times in the whole file.
today-->2
I-->3
have-->1
a-->3
lot-->1
write-->1
but-->1
will-->1
not-->1
and so on
I used tr to separate each word in a line but I'm not sure how I'm going to look for each word

STR_WORD_COUNT(3) 1 STR_WORD_COUNT(3)
str_word_count - Return information about words used in a string
SYNOPSIS
mixed str_word_count (string $string, [int $format], [string $charlist])
DESCRIPTION
Counts the number of words inside $string. If the optional $format is not specified, then the return value will be an integer representing
the number of words found. In the event the $format is specified, the return value will be an array, content of which is dependent on the
$format. The possible value for the $format and the resultant outputs are listed below.
For the purpose of this function, 'word' is defined as a locale dependent string containing alphabetic characters, which also may contain,
but not start with "'" and "-" characters.
PARAMETERS
o $string
- The string
o $format
- Specify the return value of this function. The current supported values are:
o 0 - returns the number of words found
o 1 - returns an array containing all the words found inside the $string
o 2 - returns an associative array, where the key is the numeric position of the word inside the $string and the value is the
actual word itself
o $charlist
- A list of additional characters which will be considered as 'word'
RETURN VALUES
Returns an array or an integer, depending on the $format chosen.
CHANGELOG
+--------+--------------------------------+
|Version | |
| | |
| | Description |
| | |
+--------+--------------------------------+
| 5.1.0 | |

EXAMPLES
Example #1
A str_word_count(3) example
<?php
$str = "Hello fri3nd, you're

print_r(str_word_count($str, 2));
print_r(str_word_count($str, 1, 'aaac3'));
