In addition to snippsat excellent answer - as always in programming Counter can be applied differently as well. It can be used in combination with with randint or choices for example:
+>>> import random
+>>> from collections import Counter
+>>> random.seed(42) # for reproducibility
+>>> Counter(random.randint(1, 10) for i in range(1000))
Counter({4: 116, 5: 113, 2: 108, 8: 105, 9: 103, 7: 102, 10: 95, 1: 91, 3: 85, 6: 82})
+>>> Counter(random.choices(range(1, 11), k=1000))
Counter({6: 112, 8: 105, 10: 104, 1: 103, 5: 103, 4: 102, 2: 99, 3: 92, 7: 91, 9: 89})
