How do I make it count a letter that appears more than once?

Question

text = input()
dict = {}
for i in text:
dict[i] = dict.get(text, len(i))
print(dict)

Answer 1

try this:

letters = {}
for i in text:
letters[i] = letters.get(i, 0) + 1

I would advice not to use dict as a variable name since it's a reserved keyword in python.

The get method with 2 parameters allows you to set a default value if the key does not exists.

For example, if "a" is not a key in the letters dictionary, letters.get("a", 0) will return 0.

I hope this helps :)
