count occurrences of value in array code example

Example 1: javascript Count the occurrences of a value in an array

const countOccurrences = (arr, val) => arr.reduce((a, v) => (v === val ? a + 1 : a), 0);

// Examples
countOccurrences([2, 1, 3, 3, 2, 3], 2);                // 2
countOccurrences(['a', 'b', 'a', 'c', 'a', 'b'], 'a');  // 3

Example 2: javascript Count the frequency of a value in an array

const countOccurrences = arr => arr.reduce((prev, curr) => (prev[curr] = ++prev[curr] || 1, prev), {});

// Examples
countOccurrences([2, 1, 3, 3, 2, 3]);               // { '1': 1, '2': 2, '3': 3 }
countOccurrences(['a', 'b', 'a', 'c', 'a', 'b']);   // { 'a': 3, 'b': 2, 'c': 1 }
