Answer 1

have a look at this post, he want to do almost the same. Modifying 2 lines of the code and it's done:

function myFunction() {
  var objList={};
  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getActiveSheet();
  var data = ss.getDataRange().getValues();
  for(var i in data){
    // for(var j in data[i]){
      if(typeof objList[data[i][0]]=="undefined"){
        objList[data[i][0]]=[]; // new array
        objList[data[i][0]].push(data[i][1]); // push the value of the second column
      }
      else{
        objList[data[i][0]].push(data[i][1]);
      }
    //}
  }
  var objTable=[];
  for(var k in objList){
   objTable.push([k,objList[k]]);
  }
  Logger.log(objTable);
  ss.clear();
  ss.getRange(1, 1, objTable.length, objTable[0].length).setValues(objTable);
}
