word_counter_to_hash.rb

# 1. Create a program to analyze a large block of text and
#  report back on the frequency of
# each word in the text.

# a. Start by sorting the text into a hash where each word is a key with the word’s
# value being the amount of times it has been used in the block:
# {the: 10, john: 1, of: 15}

# b. Once you’ve created this hash, return the word that has been used the most

# c. When you’re done, encapsul your script inside of a method that can analyze
# any block of text fed to it

# Method
