If you want to count duplicates for a given element then use the count() function. Use a counter() function or basics logic combination to find all duplicated elements in a list and count them in Python. Simple example code. Using count()Get the occurrence of a given element in the List. Count “b” in the list.
Output: 2 And if want to count each of the elements in the List using for loop.
Output: Same code using list comprehension
Using collections.Counter()You need to import Counter from the collection.
Output: Counter({‘a’: 3, ‘c’: 3, ‘b’: 1}) Do comment if you have any doubts and suggestions on this Python list topic.

How do I count the number of repeated characters in a list in Python?Step 1: Declare a String and store it in a variable. Step 2: Use 2 loops to find the duplicate characters. Outer loop will be used to select a character and initialize variable count to 1. Step 3: Inner loop will be used to compare the selected character with remaining characters of the string.
