Zecheesecake ,

can you link your current code here?

in general:
to count the total number of all vowels in a string, we can try this:

> define the vowels as a string
> create a counter variable
> iterate over the input string
> if the current character is in the `vowels `
> increment counter
> finally output the value of the counter
