// This function counts instances of elements in an array
// the return object has the array elements as keys
// and number of occurrences as it's value
const arrToInstanceCountObj = arr => arr.reduce((obj, e) => {
  obj[e] = (obj[e] || 0) + 1;
  return obj;
}, {});

arrToInstanceCountObj(['h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', 'w', 'o', 'r', 'l', 'd'])
