In simple terms, count() method counts how many times an element has occurred in a list and returns it.
The syntax of count() method is:
list.count(element)
The count() method takes a single argument:
- element - element whose count is to be found.
The count() method returns the number of occurrences of an element in a list.
# vowels list
vowels = ['a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'i', 'u']
# count element 'i'
count = vowels.count('i')
# print count
print('The count of i is:', count)
When you run the program, the output will be:
The count of i is: 2
The count of p is: 0
