Question: counting
Is there a way to write a code that counts every letter, space, characters with the exception of 0-9 and with an exception of not stating what every characters, space, and letter is?
i.e. If I wanted to count 20482.2140108ab and wanted to return with
0 3
1 2
2 3
3 0
4 2
5 0
6 0
7 0
8 2
9 0
other symbols 3
?

Do you have more questions on this?
Re: Question: counting
Yes, have an array that would denote how many of each item you've found. Since you are only classifying numbers [0-9] and all others as it's own category, you'd have 11 categories.
Then, you can iterate through each character in the string and determine which category to increase the count for (either using if/else statements or by taking advantage of the underlying unicode representation)
