Hi
Here's a similar example
$ python3
> Python 3.10.6 (main, Nov 14 2022, 16:10:14) [GCC 11.3.0] on linux
> Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
> >>> from collections import Counter
> >>> cnt = Counter # Oops!
> >>> cnt.update('abcde')
> >>> cnt
> <class 'collections.Counter'>
>
This is what happens without the typo.
>>> cnt = Counter()
> >>> cnt.update('abcde')
> >>> cnt
> Counter({'a': 1, 'b': 1, 'c': 1, 'd': 1, 'e': 1})
>
Here's a link to the source for Counter.update:
