Issue #11076 has been updated by Robert A. Heiler.


Can you also add a sentence or two for documentation? :-)

It may lower the entry barrier for adding a method such as the above (I ass=
ume it must be documented by someone before it could be added).

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`:

    array =3D ['aa', 'aA', 'bb', 'cc']
    p array.count_by(&:downcase) #=3D> {'aa'=3D>2,'bb'=3D>1,'cc'=3D>1}
