Has this wheel been invented, but simpler? I've an array of words that I'd like to know how many occurences of each there are. For instance: $fruits = array( "lemon", "orange", "banana", "apple", "orange", "banana",
   "orange"    );
And I'd like to create this: $fruit_count = array( "lemon" => 1, "orange" => 3, "banana" => 2,
   "apple" => 1    );
