Python string count method

Count string in a string

We can use count method to find out the number of occurrences of a substring. count method has the following syntax.

s.count(sub [, start [, end]])

It counts the number of nonoverlapping occurrences of sub in s, from offsets start to end (defaults: 0, len(s)).


string1 = "Test1, test2, test3, test4, Test5, test6"
print string1.count( "test" )
print "test occurs after 18th character"
print string1.count( "test", 18, len( string1 ) )
