How do I count the number of times a character appears in string ?If you're interested in counting the number of times that a particular character occurs in a string, the tr/// operator is probably what you want.
my $some_string = q{This isn't a 'test'.}; my $count = ($some_string =~ tr/'/'/);
Hope this helps!
