Question

Your task is to count the frequency of words in a text file, and return the most frequent word with its count.

For example, given the following text:

there are two ways of constructing a software design one way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies.

Based on the example your program should printout the following along with the milliseconds to finish the computing:
The most frequent word is "there" with 3 occurrences.

The code is below, it doesn't seem to printout what word is the most frequent and how many occurrences of it there are.

i have corrected everything now.. The code works perfectly.. please please upvote.
