Count Occurrences of a Character in a String

❮ Previous Next ❯

A Python program to count how many times a specific character appears in a given string using the count() method.

Explanation in Points:

input("Enter a string: ") – Takes a string input from the user.
input("Enter the character to count: ") – Takes a character input to count its occurrences.
string.count(char_to_count) – Uses the count() function to find the number of times the character appears in the string.
print(f"The character '{char_to_count}' appears {count} times in the string.") – Displays the result in a formatted way.

Program:

string = input("Enter a string: ")

char_to_count = input("Enter the character to count: ")

count = string.count(char_to_count)

print(f"The character '{char_to_count}' appears {count} times in the string.")
