Letter Counter Python

Question

Can anyone help me with this code? Why doesn't it work?

text = input()
dict = {}
#your code goes here
for letters in text:
letters = letters.split()
for x in letters:
dict[x] = dict.get(x, 0) + 1
print(dict)

Answer 1

MartiiOliwa blocks are the problem

Try to use print statement outside loops

Answer 2

(1) it is not necessary to convert the input text to a list. string can be iterated directly.
(2)if we want to count all characters except spaces, we can remove them directly with input().replace(...)

# (1)
text = input()
dic = {}
for x in text:
dic[x] = dic.get(x, 0) + 1
print(dic)

# (2)
text = input().replace(" ","")
dic = {}
for x in text:
dic[x] = dic.get(x, 0) + 1
print(dic)
