Python 3

有两种方法可以做到这一点:

1)内置函数count()

sentence = 'Mary had a little lamb'
print(sentence.count('a'))`

2)不使用函数

sentence = 'Mary had a little lamb'    
count = 0

for i in sentence:
    if i == "a":
        count = count + 1

print(count)

spam = 'have a nice day'
var = 'd'


def count(spam, var):
    found = 0
    for key in spam:
        if key == var:
            found += 1
    return found
count(spam, var)
print 'count %s is: %s ' %(var, count(spam, var))

“不使用计数查找字符串中需要的字符”方法。

import re

def count(s, ch):

   pass

def main():

   s = raw_input ("Enter strings what you like, for example, 'welcome': ")  

   ch = raw_input ("Enter you want count characters, but best result to find one character: " )

   print ( len (re.findall ( ch, s ) ) )

main()

使用数:

sentence = 'A man walked up to a door'
print(sentence.count('a'))
# 4

这是公认答案的延伸，你应该在文本中寻找所有字符的计数。

# Objective: we will only count for non-empty characters

text = "count a character occurrence"
unique_letters = set(text)
result = dict((x, text.count(x)) for x in unique_letters if x.strip())

print(result)
# {'a': 3, 'c': 6, 'e': 3, 'u': 2, 'n': 2, 't': 2, 'r': 3, 'h': 1, 'o': 2}

这个简单直接的函数可能会有帮助:

def check_freq(x):
    freq = {}
    for c in set(x):
       freq[c] = x.count(c)
    return freq

check_freq("abbabcbdbabdbdbabababcbcbab")
{'a': 7, 'b': 14, 'c': 3, 'd': 3}

如果需要理解:

def check_freq(x):
    return {c: x.count(c) for c in set(x)}
