I have a set that contains all the possible values present in a list. What I want is to know how much of each value are present in the list.
So, I have:
set_a = ("a","b", "c", "d")
lst = ["a", "b", "c", "c"]
What I want is this:
a 1
b 1
c 2

Could you show us what you have tried so far? – matsjoyce Nov 04 '14 at 17:57

I may have been a bit to quick to ask (just a bit under stress :-P) but I tried this `for i in set_a: print i, lst.len(i)` – oaklander114 Nov 04 '14 at 18:00

thanks for pointing to the other question. How do I iterate over a set? – oaklander114 Nov 04 '14 at 18:04

The normal way: `for i in your_set: ...` – matsjoyce Nov 04 '14 at 18:05

You will see solutions here: How can I count the occurrences of a list item in Python?
For instance you can do:
[1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 4, 1].count(1)
