htmlentities() expects parameter 1 to be string, object given laravel5

iam receving this error, htmlentities() expects parameter 1 to be string, object given. How to solve it? My controller

    {
      $recordsByCategories=\DB::table('products')
                 ->select('categories', \DB::raw('count(*) as total'))
                 ->groupBy('categories')
                 ->get();


     //dd($recordsByCategories);
     return view('dashboard.show',compact('recordsByCategories'));

    }

my view 

@foreach($recordsByCategories as $recordsByCategory)
{!!$recordsByCategory->$categories!!}
@endforeach

try this in view

use {{$recordsByCategory->categories}} instead of {{$recordsByCategory}}

It is because $recordsByCategory is an object

One another problem here is, when you use count(*) in this query then it will return only one row in result.

$recordsByCategory is an object, not a string, so {{$recordsByCategory}} makes no sense. You want to display properties of the record, not the entire record itself.
