Let me rewrite the code with some different variable names...

>>> with open(file_path) as a:
>>>     b = a.read()

with open (file_path) as PI_text:
     PI_as_a_long_string = PI_text.read()

>>> for year in b:

for each_char in PI_as_a_long_string:

>>>     if get_year in b:
>>>         count += 1

      if get_year in PI_as_a_long_string:
          count += 1

>>> print("Your birth date occurs %s times in PI!" % (count))

if count:
   print("Your birth date occurs in PI, I checked, count, "times!")


Aren't meaningful variable names great? We should all do
them more often.
