Example 1: count similar values in list python
MyList = ["a", "b", "a", "c", "c", "a", "c"]
return my_dict = {i:MyList.count(i) for i in MyList}
# returns :
{'a': 3, 'c': 3, 'b': 1}
# OR
from collections import Counter
return my_dict = dict(Counter(MyList))
# returns :
{'a': 3, 'c': 3, 'b': 1}
# the both returns the same so it's up to you to choose the one you prefere ;)
Example 2: how to find no of times a elements in list python
thislist = (1, 3, 7, 8, 7, 5, 4, 6, 8, 5)
x = thislist.count(5)
print(x)
Example 3: How to see how many times somting is in a list python
vowels = ['a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'i', 'u']
count = vowels.count('i')
Example 4: python find the number of elements in a list
list1 = [2,3,4,3,10,3,5,6,3]
elm_count = list1.count(3)
print('The count of element: 3 is ', elm_count)
Example 5: python how to count all elements in a list
List = ["Elephant", "Snake", "Penguin"]
print(len(List))
# With the 'len' function Python counts the amount of elements
# in a list (The length of the list).
# In this case the output is '3' because there are 3 elements in the list.
Example 6: how to count things in a list python
list.count(element)
list1 = ['red', 'green', 'blue', 'orange', 'green', 'gray', 'green']
color_count = list1.count('green')
print('The count of color: green is ', color_count)
