String count with Powershell

Question

I would like to write a script to count the occurrences of each string from File A, in bunch of files from remote servers. I am new to Powershell and don't have a clue how to achieve this, appreciate any help on this.

For example-

FileA.txt:
Orange
Mango
Banana

FileB.txt:
\computer-1\1.txt
\computer-2\2.txt
\computer-3\3.txt

Expecting output:
Orange 3
Mango 5
Banana 7

Answer 1

Is this a homework project??? I hope not. You won't learn much this way.

$n = get-content C:\junk\FileA.txt
$h = @{}
"1.txt","2.txt","3.txt" |
    ForEach-Object{
        Get-Content $_ |
            ForEach-Object{
                if ($n -contains $_){
                    $h.$_++
                }
            }
    }
$h
