[Tutor] Re: Unique Items in Lists

[Chad Crabtree]

Ok you got me thinking.  I used the same thing I posted before but 
created a one liner that as a side affect makes adict like before.
[adict.__setitem__(x,adict.get(x,0)+1) for x in l]

I think it's kinda funny and ugly, ohh and not particuarly clear
about 
what it does.
