Isogram detector : simplify my code

word = input() dict ={} for x in word: if x not in dict: dict[x]=1 else: dict[x]+=1 final=list(dict.values()) if max(final)==1: print("true") else: print("false") Hello, I need help to simplify the end of my code. I had to convert my dictionary to a list to use the max() command. Would you find an easier way to make it works ? (Isogram detector challenge, it has to output true is the word dosent contains 2 time the same letter and false if a word contains 2 times the same letter. Word = true Carrot = false) Thank you :)

Max Lang , you can use max() also for dictionaries: ... if max(dict.values()) == 1: print("true") else: print("false") allow me some hints for general improofment: - please use proper indentation of 4 spaces per indentation level - do not use names of objects / classes like 'dict' as a variable name, because this can cause issues

Remember that a set holds only unique values. You could build a set from all the letters in the original word, then compare the set's length with the original word length. word = input() s = set(i for i in word) print(len(s)==len(word))
