Here's a code in python that takes a string and returns sorted unique characters in that string and the number of characters dropped :

def remove_duplicates(x):
z = set(list(x))
return (''.join(sorted(z)))

inputString = input()
newString = remove_duplicates(inputString)
print (newString, len(inputString)-len(newString))
