i need help with this python problem

[FreQUENCY]

This small issue took me 3 days and i stil did not fix it. I was assigned to Create a program that counts the digits(0-9) from a string as well as other characters(not defined[probably all]). Your program will output a 11character string,that will count how many numbers it came across in the input. The first character would be the number of ZEROS python read in the string,the second one will do the same job but will show how many ONES it saw and ETC. The 11th character will be how many NON numbers are inside my string. If a number exceeds the 9time you should mark it with an ASTERISK. For example. INPUT=01710 OUTPUT=22000001000 

And i get this error EVERYTIME TypeError: must be str, not int. Take a look at my code.

user_data_list=[]
user_data=input()
while user_data!="end" and user_data!="END":
  met_data_list=[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0]
  user_data_list=list(user_data)
  for i in range (len(user_data_list)):
    if user_data_list[i]=="0":   
      met_data_list[0]=met_data_list[0]+1
      
    elif user_data_list[i]=="1":
      met_data_list[1]=met_data_list[1]+1
      
    elif user_data_list[i]=="2":
     met_data_list[2]=met_data_list[2]+1
     
    elif user_data_list[i]=="3":
      met_data_list[3]=met_data_list[3]+1
      
    elif user_data_list[i]=="4":
       met_data_list[4]=met_data_list[4]+1
       
    elif user_data_list[i]=="5":
      met_data_list[5]=met_data_list[5]+1
      
    elif user_data_list[i]=="6":
      met_data_list[6]=met_data_list[6]+1
      
    elif user_data_list[i]=="7":
     met_data_list[7]=met_data_list[7]+1
     
    elif user_data_list[i]=="8":
     
     met_data_list[8]=met_data_list[8]+1
     
    elif user_data_list[i]=="9":
      
      met_data_list[9]=met_data_list[9]+1
     
    elif "0123456789" not in user_data_list[i]:
      met_data_list[10]=met_data_list[10]+1

    for i in range(len(met_data_list)):
      if met_data_list[i]>9:
       met_data_list.pop(i)
       met_data_list.insert(i,"*")
    
    

  print ("{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}".format(met_data_list[0],met_data_list[1],met_data_list[2],met_data_list[3],met_data_list[4],met_data_list[5],met_data_list[6],met_data_list[7],met_data_list[8],met_data_list[9],met_data_list[10]))

  user_data=input()

I really need help. My head will explode

I get the wrong answer based on your sample input (22000001001 instead of the expected 22000001001), but the code runs without error using that link, so i'm not sure where you were getting a typeerror

You're probably trying to print a number, in which cast you need to first call str([variable name]) if using Python 2.7, repr ([variable name]) if using Python 3

 

EDIT: Actually printing wouldn't matter. But either way.

Replacing the count with a * only needs to be done once, not every time through the main loop. After you get to 10 of some character you're trying to add '*' + 1.

Inside my for loop with the "*"  i added str(),but no progress. I want to print numbers yes.

if i remove the for loop from the while the programm will hang

[FreQUENCY]

The code might run,but if you type for example "@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@" or "222222222222222222222222222222222222222223". You will get the error

You have 1 for loop inside your other for loop, it should be outside that loop. Also if nesting loops you shouldn't use the same variable name for both.

Are we on the same page? Cause i think i might be missing something. EDIT! Ignore the while exit loop! I tested something

I think so but it's hard to tell from the pictures. Do you still get the error after you moved the loop?

 

And for adding the '*'s you don't need to do a pop and insert you can just change the value directly.

met_data_list[j] = '*'

DONE! Finished. Thank you all for the help!

text_list = []
user_data=input()

  met_data_list=[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0]

  for char in user_data:
    if char.isdigit():
        idchar=int(char)
        met_data_list[idchar] += 1
    else:
        met_data_list[10] += 1

  for i in range(len(met_data_list)):
    if met_data_list[i]>9:
     met_data_list.pop(i)
     met_data_list.insert(i,"*")
