python count list item occurrences code example

Example 1: python count matching elements in a list

# Basic syntax:
sum(1 for item in your_list if item == "some_condition")
# This counts the items in your_list for which item == "some_condition"
#	is true. Of course, this can be changed to any conditional statement

Example 2: python find number of occurrences in list

student_grades = [9.1, 8.8, 10.0, 7.7, 6.8, 8.0, 10.0, 8.1, 10.0, 9.9]

samebnumber = student_grades.count(10.0)

print(samebnumber)
