How to count duplicate value in an array in javascript

Question

Currently, I got an array like that:

var uniqueCount = Array();

After a few steps, my array looks like that:

uniqueCount =          


        

Answer 1

var arr = ['a','d','r','a','a','f','d'];  

//call function and pass your array, function will return an object with array values as keys and their count as the key values.
duplicatesArr(arr);

function duplicatesArr(arr){
    var obj = {}
    for(var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++){
        obj[arr[i]] = [];
        for(var x = 0; x < arr.length; x++){
            (arr[i] == arr[x]) ? obj[arr[i]].push(x) : '';
        }
        obj[arr[i]] = obj[arr[i]].length;
    }

    console.log(obj);
    return obj;
}
