Number Of Times A Character Appears In A String?

Nov 11, 2009

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:

Count The Number Of Times That A String Appears In Another String?

Jul 15, 2009

How 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
End If

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

Client That Appears Same Number Of Times As There Are Keywords

Dec 13, 2011

I know it sounds strange but let me it explain. It has a purpose, but really all I'm looking for is the item with the most duplicates.I know it's possible and I've had a few ideas already, though none were successful or practical.What I'm doing here that requires this is creating an intuitive search for clients in a database. You type in a single field and click search. Behind scenes each keyword broken down from the single input field is searched through the table of clients, hitting each column and returning matches. the results are large in numbers, but truly it's the client that appears the same number of times as there are keywords.

.net - Count The Number Of Occurrences Of Each Character In A String?

May 31, 2011

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

Random Number Generator Generating Same Number Many Times?

Sep 17, 2011

I have this program generating a firstname and lastname from a file. When I run this program I enter information in three textboxes. The first two are the salary low and high(salary1.text, salary2.text) and the last one is the number of "copies"(copies.text) that I want.. When I put a number such as 10 in the text box it outputs some of the same names. The firstname file has around 100 records and the lastname file has about 1000 records Why is it generating the same name The problem is even worse if I do something like 1000 copies.. it outputs the same thing 8 times and then does something different another 8 times

Public Class Form1
Dim sex As String
Function randomfirstname()
Dim infile As IO.StreamReader

VS 2008 Random - New Character Out Of The String And Then Remove The Character From The List Of Characters

Dec 12, 2010

[Code]...

For each character of this string I want a new character out of the string and then remove the character from the list of characters that still maybe used for other characters. It may not get the same character, you could basically just call this encryption, but it's not what I am making. I don't want to waste my time doing this one hour while VB can do this for me in <1 second.

Forms :: Formatting Bound Data - So The Phone Number Appears In The Label Properly?

Sep 15, 2011

I have a window form with a label. On the form I have a dataset, bindingsoure, and tableadaptor (all created by the IDE in response to binding the text property of the label) To fill the datatable, the IDE created this: Me.ClientsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.MyDataSet.Clients) Works fine. The bound field is a phone number, stored in the db as a 10 digit numeric string I need to format this with the standard ()-, and I have a function that will do just that. How can I apply the formatting so the phone number appears in the label properly?

Count Number Of Times A Textbox Was Used?

Apr 10, 2011

This text book i have is not very good at all. the exercise's at the end of each chapter ask u to code projects without first covering the basic of what u will need do to code them. (Programming in Visual Basic 2008 Julia Case Bradley + Aninta C. Millspaugh)

Design and code a project to calculate the amount due and provide a summaray of rentals. All movies rent for $1.00 and all customers receive a %10 discount. The form should contain input for the member number and the number of movies rented. INside a groupbox display the rental amount, the 10 percent discount, and the amount due. inside a second groupbox, display the number of customers served and the total rental income.(afterdiscount).Include buttons for Calculate, clear, print and exit. The clear button clears the information for the current rental but does not clear the sumarry information. A print button allows the user to print the form. Do not allow bad input data to cancel the program; instead display a message to the user.[code]...

Counting How Many Times Certain Number Appear In One Column

May 31, 2010

I have an SQL database with a single table with several colunmns. I want to count how many times a certain number appears in one of the columns. E.g. I have the following:
A B C
8 4 6
0 9 3
1 4 6
4 7 1

I want to count the number of times 4 is used in column B. I have looked at using the following, but not sure if this is even the right approach:
Dim db as New MainTblDataSet
Dim BCount = Aggregate B In db.MainTbl Into Count(B.B = num)
where num=the number I am counting the instances of (4 in this case).
The hope is that BCount will equal 2, but it returns 0 every time.
