count character javascript code example

Example 1: count occurrences of character in string javascript

var temp = "This is a string.";
var count = (temp.match(/is/g) || []).length;
console.log(count);

Output: 2

Explaination : The g in the regular expression (short for global) says to search the whole string rather than just find the first occurrence. This matches 'is' twice.

Example 2: js character certain count

var str = "Hello Lewes";
var ch = 'e';
 
var count = str.split("e").length - 1;
console.log(count);
 
/*
    Output: 3
*/

var colors = ["Red", "Orange", "Blue", "Green"];
var colorsLength=colors.length;//4 is colors array length 

var str = "bug";
var strLength=str.length;//3 is the number of characters in bug
