Example 1: Using a for loop
count = 0
my_string = "Programiz"
my_char = "r"
for i in my_string:
if i == my_char:
count += 1
print(count)
Output
2
In the above example, we have found the count of 'r' in 'Programiz'. The for-loop loops over each character of my_string and the if condition checks if each character of my_string is 'r'. The value of count increases if there is a match.
Example 2: Using method count()
my_string = "Programiz"
my_char = "r"
print(my_string.count(my_char))
Output
2
count() counts the frequency of the character passed as parameter.
