    Alternatively, without an import:

    input()
socks = input().strip().split()
pairs = 0

for element in set(socks):
	pairs += socks.count(element) // 2
print(pairs)

    There's also no need for integer casting, since we're just counting like things; and these are really just labels, not numbers we'll be doing arithmetic on.
