def subpack(passedlist)
  hsh = Hash.new
  subpacklist = []
  #create a hsh of element frequency
  passedlist.each do |element|
    hsh[element] = hsh[element].to_i + 1
  end

  hsh.each do |key, value|
    subgroup = Array.new
    value.times {subgroup.push(key)}
    subpacklist << subgroup
  end
  subpacklist
end
