This is the Float variable name is <abc1>
This is the integer variable name is <abc2>
This is the Float variable name is <abc2>
This is the integer variable name is <abc3>
This is the Float variable name is <abc3>
This is the integer variable name is <abc4>
This is the Float variable name is <abc4>
This is the integer variable name is <abc5>

I need to find the count of the each string with the string comparison of This is the integer variable name is <abc_> and This is the Float variable name is <abc_> by taking this file as input.

Thanks in Advance

You can extract the type and count:
Code:
sed '
    s/^This is the \([a-zA-Z0-9_]*\) variable name is <abc.*>$/\1/
    t
    d
 ' your_input_file | sort | uniq -c
