count characters in string code example

Example 1: js character certain count

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

Example 2: counting the number of characters in a string java

public static void main(String[] args) {
		int wordCount = 0;
		String word = "hill";
		for (char letter = 'a'; letter <= 'z'; letter++) {
			for (int i = 0; i < word.length(); i++) {
				if (word.charAt(i) == letter) {
					wordCount++;
				}
			}
			if (wordCount > 0) {
				System.out.println(letter + "=" + wordCount);
				wordCount = 0;
			}
		}
	}

Example 3: count value a to b character javascript

let counter = str => {
  return str.split('').reduce((total, letter) => {
    total[letter] ? total[letter]++ : total[letter] = 1;
    return total;
  }, {});
};

counter("aabsssd"); // => { a: 2, b: 1, s: 3, d: 1 }

Example 4: count characters in string

# count characters iterative
def count_chars(s)
  count = Hash.new(0)
  s.split("").each do |x|
    count[x] += 1
  end
  count
end

# count characters functional
s.chars.map {|c| [c, s.chars.count(c)] }.to_h
