About Char Frequency

What it does

It tallies every character — letters, digits, spaces and punctuation — and lists them by how often they occur.

Where it helps

Frequency analysis for puzzles and ciphers, checking text composition, and data cleaning.

Readable labels

Whitespace characters are labeled (space, newline, tab) so the counts are clear.

Frequently asked questions

Is it case-sensitive?
Yes — uppercase and lowercase are counted separately.
Does it count spaces?
Yes, and they're labeled clearly in the output.
What is frequency analysis for?
Breaking simple substitution ciphers and analysing text.
