I feel silly, but I'm having the darndest time trying to figure out why
this for counter won't work. I know that there is the count method for the
string class, but I was just trying to do it the syntactical way to prove
myself that I know the very basics. As of right now, my script is just
returning 1 or 0, even if I very clearly make sure that I specify at least
4 instances of the digit in my number string:
number = raw_input('Enter a 7-unit number: ')
digit = raw_input('Enter a single digit: ')
for i in number:
count = 0
if i == digit:
count += 1
else:
count = 0
print count
Thanks,
Brandon
