[unique_symbols, ~, bin_number] = unique(YourText(:));
symbol_counts = accumarray(bin_number, 1);
symbol_probs = symbol_counts ./ numel(YourText);
Alternately,
sparse_count = sparse(1, double(YourText(:)), 1);
[~, unique_symbols, symbol_counts] = find(sparse_count);
unique_symbols = char(unique_symbols.');
symbol_probs = symbol_counts.' ./ numel(YourText);
In both cases, after the code, unique_symbols will be a column vector of characters that exist in the text, and symbol_probs will be the corresponding probability.
The sparse() version has a minor flaw that it will fail if any characters in the text are binary 0.

Are you certain that this remark about needing to know how to compute the probabilities is the answer that you needed to your question? You Accepted it ?

That is not a continuation of this question.
You should first use Google Scholar to research the topic.
