Suggestions for Comparing Data

[Tom Russell <linuxrox at stny dot rr dot com>]

Hi,

I have some strings and want to take the whole list of them, find all 
the duplicates and keep count of each set of duplicates and then show in 
ascending order the top 10 items found.

Example:

25 MyText
21 YourText
18 TheText
15 Text
15 SomeText

and so forth.

Im looking for suggestions and ideas. Im toying with a dictionary right now.

Thanks.

Tom
