Re: [Python-ideas] string method count()

str.count counts non-overlapping instances of the substring. After counting the first 'AA', there is only one A left, so that isn't a second instance of 'AA' On 2018-04-25 02:22 PM, Julia Kim wrote: > Hi, > > There’s an error with the string method count(). > > x = ‘AAA’ > y = ‘AA’ >

Re: [Python-ideas] string method count()

Hi, >From https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str.count: str.count(*sub*[, *start*[, *end*]]) Return the number of *non-overlapping* occurrences of substring *sub* in the range [*start*, *end*]. Optional arguments *start* and *end* are interpreted as in slice notation. Best regards,
