my code in Python s = raw_input() d={"DIGITS":0, "LETTERS":0} for c in s: if c.isdigit(): d["DIGITS;"]+=1 elif c.isalpha(): d["LETTERS;"]+=1 else: pass print ("LETTERS", d["LETTERS"]) print ("DIGITS", d["DIGITS"])

Program in Java: public static void main(String a[]) { scanner sc=new scanner(System.in); int digit=0, alpha=0; system.out.println("enter a sentence to calculate the number of letters and digits"); String s=sc.nextLine(); char a[]=s.toCharArray(); for (int i=0; i<a.length;i++) { if (a[i]>=65&&a[i]<=90||a[i]>=97&&a[i]<=122) // A-Z or a-z { alpha++; } if (a[i]>=48&&a[i]<=57) { digit++; } } system.out.println("LETTERS: "+alpha); system.out.println("DIGITS: "+digit); } P.S: This semester I had Java so tried in that. Your Python code is efficient..!
