collections.Counter()
  A counter is a container that stores elements as dictionary keys, and their counts are stored as dictionary values.
  >>> from collections import Counter
  >>> 
  >>> myList = [1,1,2,3,4,5,3,2,3,4,2,1,2,3]
  >>> print Counter(myList)
  Counter({2: 4, 3: 4, 1: 3, 4: 2, 5: 1})
  >>>
 enumerate()
 	 adds a counter to an iterable and returns it in a form of enumerate object. This enumerate object can then be used directly in 	for loops
