myString.count('a');

正则表达式?

import re
my_string = "Mary had a little lamb"
len(re.findall("a", my_string))

你可以使用循环和字典。

def count_letter(text):
    result = {}
    for letter in text:
        if letter not in result:
            result[letter] = 0
        result[letter] += 1
    return result

我不知道“最简单的”，但简单的理解可以做到:

>>> my_string = "Mary had a little lamb"
>>> sum(char == 'a' for char in my_string)
4

利用内置的和，生成器理解和bool是整数的子类的事实:如何乘字符等于'a'。

要获得所有字母的计数，请使用集合。计数器:

>>> from collections import Counter
>>> counter = Counter("Mary had a little lamb")
>>> counter['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}
