Duplicates in an array containing alphabets:

var arr = ["a", "b", "a", "z", "e", "a", "b", "f", "d", "f"],
  sortedArr = [],
  count = 1;

sortedArr = arr.sort();

for (var i = 0; i < sortedArr.length; i = i + count) {
  count = 1;
  for (var j = i + 1; j < sortedArr.length; j++) {
    if (sortedArr[i] === sortedArr[j])
      count++;
  }
  document.write(sortedArr[i] + " = " + count + "
");
}

Duplicates in an array containing numbers:

var arr = [2, 1, 3, 2, 8, 9, 1, 3, 1, 1, 1, 2, 24, 25, 67, 10, 54, 2, 1, 9, 8, 1],
  sortedArr = [],
  count = 1;
sortedArr = arr.sort(function(a, b) {
  return a - b
});
for (var i = 0; i < sortedArr.length; i = i + count) {
  count = 1;
  for (var j = i + 1; j < sortedArr.length; j++) {
    if (sortedArr[i] === sortedArr[j])
      count++;
  }
  document.write(sortedArr[i] + " = " + count + "
");
}
