Issue #11076 has been updated by Eregon (Benoit Daloze).


For this kind of method, I wish we would implement it in Ruby even in MRI: it's much simpler, more readable, and every Ruby implementation could use it.

Feature #11076: Enumerable method count_by

I very often use `Hash[array.group_by{|x|x}.map{|x,y|[x,y.size]}]`.

Would be nice with to have a method called `count_by`:

~~~ruby
array = ['aa', 'aA', 'bb', 'cc']
p array.count_by(&:downcase) #=> {'aa'=>2,'bb'=>1,'cc'=>1}
~~~
