title: frequencies tags: array,intermediate

JS TODO

Returns an object with the unique values of an array as keys and their frequencies as the values.

Use Array.prototype.reduce() to map unique values to an object’s keys, adding to existing keys every time the same value is encountered.

const frequencies = (arr) =>
  arr.reduce((a, v) => {
    a[v] = a[v] ? a[v] + 1 : 1;
    return a;
  }, {});
frequencies(["a", "b", "a", "c", "a", "a", "b"]); // { a: 4, b: 2, c: 1 }
