Hello dear readers! Welcome back to another edition of our tutorial on Python. In this tutorial guide, we are going to be discussing about the Python String Count() method.
The Python String count() method returns the number of occurrences of substring sub in the range [start, end]. Optional arguments start and end are interpreted as in the slice notation.

str.count(sub, start = 0, end = len(string) )
RECOMMENDED: Python String Center() Method with example
Parameter Details
- sub - This is the substring to be searched.
- start - Search begins from this index. The first character starts from the 0 index. By default search starts from 0 index.
- end - Search ends from this index. First character starts from 0 index. By default the search ends at last index.
Return Value
This method returns the number of occurrences of substring sub in the range [start, end].
Example
The following below is a simple example -
#!/usr/bin/python str = "this is string example....wow!!!"; sub = "i"; print "str.count(sub, 4, 40) : ", str.count(sub, 4, 40) sub = "wow"; print "str.count(sub) : ", str.count(sub)
Output
Below is the output of the above example -
str.count(sub, 4, 40) : 2 str.count(sub) : 1
