Count letters

Question

Given a text input and a letter, the program should count the number of times de given letter appears inside the given text.

def letter_count(text, letter):

count (letter)

text = input()
letter = input()

print(letter_count(text, letter))

Why does the count formula doesn’t work?

Answer 1

The count() method belongs to the str class. You will also need to return the value from the function or your print() statement will output None.

def letter_count(text, letter):
return text.count(letter)

Answer 2

Your function code don't have return statement.
U can use cycle:
m=0
for i in range(0,len(text)):
if text[i]==letter:
m+=1
return m
