By the end, you will know how to make your programs correct, safe, fast, and easy to maintain.

Pythonic Programming Tips for Software Engineers

## Problem statement
This chapter explains how to use dictionaries for fast lookup of items (words, in our case). Keep a dictionary of the words that have been seen before, with their numbers as values. When adding a new word to the dictionary, assign the next number to it. Use the dictionary and formatted string to replace the known words with their numbers.

## Task
Given text as a string, replace all duplicate occurrences of a word after the first with a unique number that represents that word, prefixed with the hash sign (`#`).

## Example
The input `"I am Sam I am Sam Sam I am"` will become `"I am Sam #0 #1 #2 #2 #0 #1"`. 

> **Note:** Assume that the `text` consists only of letters and spaces, with no punctuation.
