I'm scanning through all characters in a textbox. Then the program counts how many of each character is in the textbox. Here's the code which adds all characters to a list:
For each c as char in TxtBox
list.add(c)
Next
Everything's working fine, except this will also add returns to the list, which I don't want. I thought I could write like this:
If c <> chr(10) Then
list.add(c)
End If
I've googled for a while now, but I can't seem to find it.
I'm looking for a way to determine how many times a character occures within a string.
Let's say for example I want all comma's to be counted in the following string:
'122,333,222,11,44,55'
How can I retrieve the number of comma's? in example 5.
Count specific character occurances in string
I have a delimeter in string that i have to validate. How can I count occurrences of that char. For now i have a next function.

QuoteWrite a Visual Basic Console Application which executes a Do-While loop repetitively. Each time the Do-While loop executes input a String value, count and display the number of occurrences of the letters �a�, �b�, �c�, �d� and �e�. Use at least one Select Case statement inside your Do-While loop. For example, suppose during one execution of the Do-While loop you input the following String value: �My mother is a great lady!�. Your program should input this value into a String variable, compute the number of times each of the letters �a�, �b�, �c�, �d� and �e� occurs and output the results: a � 3, b � 0, c � 0, d � 1, and e � 2. Terminate your Do-While loop once a value of �All Done!� is entered for the String value.
Here is my code:
Dim s1 As String
Dim a, b, c, d, e, count As Integer
Do While (s1 <> "all done")

My problem is an error that states Variable 'count' hides a variable in an enclosing block. Here is my project and my code so far:
1. Write a Visual Basic Console Application which executes a Do-While loop repetitively. Each time the Do-While loop executes input a String value, count and display the number of occurrences of the letters �a�, �b�, �c�, �d� and �e�. Use at least one Select Case statement inside your Do-While loop. For example, suppose during one execution of the Do-While loop you input the following String value: �My mother is a great lady!�. Your program should input this value into a String variable, compute the number of times each of the letters �a�, �b�, �c�, �d� and �e� occurs and output the results: a � 3, b � 0, c � 0, d � 1, and e � 2. Terminate your Do-While loop once a value of �All Done!� is entered for the String value.
2. In the same Visual Basic Console Application, following the Do-While loop described in step 1. above, enter another String value and modify it by replacing all occurrences of the word �hi� with �hello�; all occurrences of the word �today� with the word �tomorrow�; all occurrences of �hate� with �love�. Output both the original String value and the modified String value.
This is my code:
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim s1 As String
Dim a As Integer = 0
Dim b As Integer = 0

View 8 RepliesAfter executing a query with LINQ to SQL, the result I have is an arraylist (.ToList) of items with ID numbers. The number of items and their occurences will vary with each query. I would simply like to count the occurences of each specific ID in the list.
How do I do that??
The only count function I know of (.count() ) is for a count on the entire list. I've also I've been reading on how to loop through the list items but I don't understand how I can do that if I don't know how many specific ID's there will be from each query result.

View 2 RepliesHow do I count the number of times that a string appears in another string. I know this code:
If odocument.ToString.Contains("window.alert") Then
pops = pops + 1

But that will just see if the desired string contains "window.Alert" once, rather than how many times it does contain it.

View 3 Replies a program is supposed to display the number of times a number occurs in a larger number. For example, iff the user enter 356, its supposed to show the numbers 0 thru 9 and say how many times the number occurs in the program. I am pretty sure somethings wrong with the first For loop, but I am not sure why it doesnt work, all it prints out are zeros.

How can I count the amount of times a character appears in a string?
The assignment is to create a program with 2 text boxes, label, and a button. We then need to type a phrase into the first text box, and a character in the second. Then click the button and then the label will display the output of how many times the character in the second text box appears in the first.
I have all the above setup except for how to display the amount of times the character appears in the first text box, here's a picture:
input = "my mother is a great lady" output = A -3, B - 0, C - 0, D - 1, E - 2
I wanted to count the number of times letter A - E is in the input string.
I'm having a hard time displaying the number of occurrences of the letters a,b,c,d,e I want to use IndexOf, but just don't understand how.
