the documentation at Compatibility/Tutorials/Utilities/Notation says
to replace
<<Utilites`Notation`

with -
<< Notation`;

but i can't get even the sample code on the actual documentation
notebook to run!

anyone had any luck with that, or is it a bug?

I do not get very far with the new Notation package since whenever I
tried to using Symbolize, the kernel and front end were killed. Not very
user friendly! See my previous thread on the subject [1].

Hello,

lst = {{1, 0}, {1, 1}, {2, x + x^2 + x^4}, {2, 1 + x + x^2 + x^4}, {4,
x + x^2}, {4, 1 + x + x^2} ... }
First /@ lst // Tally

will produce

{{1, 2}, {2, 2}, {4, 10}, {5, 8}, {8, 10}}

which is the number of 1's, 2's, 4's etc. as the first element of the sublists.

In a little less cryptic form,

Tally[Map[First , lst]]

Will accomplish the same thing.

Regards,
Don

It works for me... but I'm not depending on the documentation to explain
things.
