Counting Letter Frequency in a String (Python) [duplicate]

by 
from collections import Counter
counts=Counter(word) # Counter({'l': 2, 'H': 1, 'e': 1, 'o': 1})
for i in word:
    print(i,counts[i])

Try using Counter, which will create a dictionary that contains the frequencies of all items in a collection.

Otherwise, you could do a condition on your current code to print only if word.count(Alphabet[i]) is greater than 0, though that would be slower.
