Add collapse unique and count unique to groupBy (Ira) #84

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
when using groupBy, I often feel the need to count unique identifiers rather 
than just collapse them into a comma delimited list with redundancies. 
Obviously, I can then parse this list to count unique, but this is hard to with 
Awk or unix utilities (at least with my knowledge) without changing the useful 
groupBy output format. Basically, a groupBy uniq -c is what I'm asking for. I'm 
guessing you have an easy way to do this outside of groupBy, which is why you 
haven't added it yet? or am i missing some existing functionality.
