How many unique characters can we see?
For reference, ASCII has 127 characters in it, so we expect this to have, at most, 127 characters:
unique_chars = list(set(text))unique_chars.sort()print(unique_chars)print(f'There are {len(unique_chars)} unique characters, including both ASCII and Unicode character')
The preceding code returns the following output:
['\n', ' ', '!', '"', '$', '%', '&', "'", '(', ')', '*', ',', '-', '.', '/', '0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', ':', ';', '?', '@', 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F', 'G', 'H', 'I', 'J', 'K', 'L', 'M', 'N', 'O', 'P', 'Q', 'R', 'S', 'T', 'U', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h', 'i', 'j', 'k', 'l', 'm', 'n', 'o', 'p', 'q', 'r', ...
