    Set letterCount to an empty dictionary
    Set importantLetter to an empty string
    Set maxCount to 0
    For each letter in inputString
        Convert letter to uppercase
        If letter is in "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ" then
            Increment letterCount[letter] by 1
        End If
    End For
    For each letter in letterCount
        If letterCount[letter] is greater than maxCount then
            Set maxCount to letterCount[letter]
            Set importantLetter to letter
        End If
    End For
    Return importantLetter
End Function
