    //      note 1: Groups elements using selector(value), similar to Kotlin's groupBy.
    //   example 1: groupBy([1, 2, 3, 4], (n) => (n % 2 === 0 ? 'even' : 'odd'))
    //   returns 1: {odd: [1, 3], even: [2, 4]}
    //   example 2: groupBy(['ant', 'bear', 'cat'], (s) => s.length)
    //   returns 2: {'3': ['ant', 'cat'], '4': ['bear']}
    //   example 3: groupBy([], () => 'x')
    //   returns 3: {}
