groupByTo
Groups elements of the original array by the key returned by the given keySelector function applied to each element and puts to the destination map each group key associated with a list of corresponding elements.
Since Kotlin
1.0Return
The destination map.
Samples
import kotlin.test.*
fun main() {
//sampleStart
val words = listOf("a", "abc", "ab", "def", "abcd")
val byLength = words.groupBy { it.length }
println(byLength.keys) // [1, 3, 2, 4]
println(byLength.values) // [[a], [abc, def], [ab], [abcd]]
val mutableByLength: MutableMap<Int, MutableList<String>> = words.groupByTo(mutableMapOf()) { it.length }
// same content as in byLength map, but the map is mutable
println("mutableByLength == byLength is ${mutableByLength == byLength}") // true
//sampleEnd
}
Groups values returned by the valueTransform function applied to each element of the original array by the key returned by the given keySelector function applied to the element and puts to the destination map each group key associated with a list of corresponding values.
Since Kotlin
1.0Return
The destination map.

val nameToTeam = listOf("Alice" to "Marketing", "Bob" to "Sales", "Carol" to "Marketing")
val namesByTeam = nameToTeam.groupBy({ it.second }, { it.first })
println(namesByTeam) // {Marketing=[Alice, Carol], Sales=[Bob]}
val mutableNamesByTeam = nameToTeam.groupByTo(HashMap(), { it.second }, { it.first })
// same content as in namesByTeam map, but the map is mutable
println("mutableNamesByTeam == namesByTeam is ${mutableNamesByTeam == namesByTeam}") // true
