最简单的方法是一行代码:

'Mary had a little lamb'.count("a")

但是如果你想用这个也可以:

sentence ='Mary had a little lamb'
   count=0;
    for letter in sentence :
        if letter=="a":
            count+=1
    print (count)

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)}

我知道要求是数一个特定的字母。我在这里没有使用任何方法编写泛型代码。

sentence1 =" Mary had a little lamb"
count = {}
for i in sentence1:
    if i in count:
        count[i.lower()] = count[i.lower()] + 1
    else:
        count[i.lower()] = 1
print(count)

输出

{' ': 5, 'm': 2, 'a': 4, 'r': 1, 'y': 1, 'h': 1, 'd': 1, 'l': 3, 'i': 1, 't': 2, 'e': 1, 'b': 1}

现在如果你想要任何特定的字母频率，你可以像下面这样打印。

print(count['m'])
2

python - 3. x:

"aabc".count("a")

Str.count (sub[， start[， end]]) 返回子字符串sub在范围[start, end]中不重叠出现的次数。可选参数start和end被解释为片表示法。

正则表达式?

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

我是pandas库的粉丝，尤其是value_counts()方法。你可以用它来计算字符串中每个字符的出现次数:

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> phrase = "I love the pandas library and its `value_counts()` method"
>>> pd.Series(list(phrase)).value_counts()
     8
a    5
e    4
t    4
o    3
n    3
s    3
d    3
l    3
u    2
i    2
r    2
v    2
`    2
h    2
p    1
b    1
I    1
m    1
(    1
y    1
_    1
)    1
c    1
