why it is not working for Letter Counter in intermediate python

Question

text = input()
dict = {}
for x in text:
dict[x]+=1
print(dict)
I have done this without checking dict using if

Answer 1

The code outputs error if x is not a key of dict.

Answer 2

JUMP_LINK__&&__Python__&&__JUMP_LINK Building up based on CarrieForle's answer, here are three possibilities:
text = input()
dict = {}
#1
for x in text:
if x in dict: dict[x] += 1
else: dict[x] = 1
print(dict)
#2
for x in text:
dict = dict.get(x, 0) + 1
print(dict)
Or just
#3
print({x: text.count(x) for x in text})
# I hope that this answer helps you with your question. If I have made a mistake in any part of my answer, just let me know. Happy coding!

Your code will give error because there is no key in dictionary so 1st you need to check if key exist in dictionary then increment counter otherwise assign 1 to dictionary.
text = input()
dict = {}
for x in text:
if x in dict:
dict[x]+=1
else:
dict[x] = 1
print(dict)
