  • Get text-file word occurrence count of all words & print output sorted

I've extracted strings I'm interested in from another file and now have a list like this:



StringA
StringB
StringA
StringA
StringB
StringC
StringB


How can I extract the number of occurrences each string has using common command-line tools?



I would like to end up with a list like this:



StringA 3
StringB 3
StringC 1



text-processing command-line scripting

    So what am I supposed to do with that information. How is it relevant that it was JSON. May be it could be used to create a different answer, that processes the JSON, so yes put it at the end. But at the beginning, I have to parse that, and realise that it is not relevant. It just adds more effort for the reader.

  • I was half-tempted to write a pure-Bash solution, but I think that's not what you want, so let's edit away the reference to that particular shell.
