Problem

Count Duplicate Characters

Medium
  • strings
  • hash-table

Return an object that maps each character occurring more than once in str to the number of times it occurs. Characters that occur only once are left out.

Example 1
Input
str = "programming"
Output
{ r: 2, g: 2, m: 2 }
Explanation

r, g and m each occur twice. Every other letter occurs once.

Example 2
Input
str = "hello"
Output
{ l: 2 }
Explanation

only l repeats.

Example 3
Input
str = "xyz"
Output
{}
Explanation

no character repeats, so the result is empty.
