count in Python

Buy Me a Coffee☕

*Memo:

• My post explains string, bytes and bytearray functions.

str.count() and bytes.count() or bytearray.count() can respectively count the substrings and byte substrings matched to sub in the range [start, end) as shown below:

*Memo:

• The 1st argument is sub(Required-Type:str for str.count() or Bytes-like object and int for bytes.count() and bytearray.count()):
  • It's the substring and byte substring of zero or more characters and bytes respectively.
  • Don't use sub=.
• The 2nd argument is start(Optional-Default:None-Type:int/NoneType):
  • It's a start index(inclusive).
  • If it's None, the 1st index is set to it.
  • Don't use start.
• The 3rd argument is end(Optional-Default:None-Type:int/NoneType):
  • It's an end index(exclusive).
  • If it's None, the string and bytes or bytearray length are set to it respectively.
  • Don't use end.
• The string and bytes or bytearray length + 1 are returned at a maximum if sub is an empty string and bytes or bytearray respectively.
• start and end can be signed indices(zero and positive and negative indices).
• Error doesn't occur even if [start, end) is out of the range [The 1st index, The string and bytes or bytearray length).
