mat was initialized like this:
mat = [[0]*26]*5
The problem is that after an inner loop iteration all the rows in mat get changed the same but i clearly stated that only the ith row should change.
the problematic lines are the ones after the # comment
please help me :(

def fill_letters_matrix(mat, word_list):
for i in range(len(mat)):
for j, item in enumerate(word_list):
if j != len(word_list)-1:
if len(item)-i-1 < 0:
continue
#the jibrish in the second brackets works,so no need to dive in...
mat[i][ord(item[len(item)-i-1])-ord("A")] += 1
else:
mat[i][ord(item[len(item) - i-1]) - ord("A")] -= 1
