I have the string
a.b.c.d I want to count the occurrences of '.' in an idiomatic way, preferably a one-liner.
(Previously I had expressed this constraint as "without a loop", in case you're wondering why everyone's trying to answer without using a loop).

First, we split the string by spaces in a. Then, take a variable count = 0 and in every true condition we increment the count by 1. Now run a loop at 0 to length of string and check if our string is equal to the word.
In Python, you can get the length of a string str (= number of characters) with the built-in function len() .
How about this. It doesn't use regexp underneath so should be faster than some of the other solutions and won't use a loop.
int count = line.length() - line.replace(".", "").length(); If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
