Help with letter counter project - Py

Question

Given a string as input, you need to output how many times each letter appears in the string.
You decide to store the data in a dictionary, with the letters as the keys, and the corresponding counts as the values.

That's the project. To be honest. I was a sponge when it comes to the python beginner course but now I'm struggling to understand how to use sets, dictionaries, lists and tuples.

So the above project is a little tricky for me.

text = input()
Dictionary = {}

What's next? Do I put a for loop in the dictionary to organise keys and values? How do I do that?

Answer 1

using a loop traverse each character from input string,.. if dict has the key of current character, then just increase its value at that key..
If dict has no key, then create a key and assign value 1 . That's it.
Ex: "abca" Dict : 'a':2 , 'b':1, 'c':1

Before this, revise dictionary lesson again..

Answer 3

Obviously it is a very common task. You may assume, that python can do it .
Actually the module collections can do it (google is your best friend until you are experienced enough to have it all in your mind)

import collections
help(collections)

Is a good start to dive deeper into your topic.
You will find, what u need and also other funny stuff.
I recommend to use python standard whenever possible.
