Package description
The ccount npm package is a simple utility that counts the occurrences of a character or substring within a string. It is useful for various string analysis tasks where you need to quantify the presence of certain characters or sequences.
Character Count
Counts the number of times a specific character appears in a string. In this example, it counts the occurrences of the character '(' in the given string.
"const ccount = require('ccount');
const count = ccount('foo(bar(baz)', '(');
console.log(count); // 2"Substring Count
Counts the number of times a substring appears in a string. In this example, it counts the occurrences of the substring 'foo' in the given string.
"const ccount = require('ccount');
const count = ccount('foofoofoo', 'foo');
console.log(count); // 3"This package offers similar functionality to ccount, allowing users to count the occurrences of a substring within a string. It differs in that it provides additional options for case sensitivity and overlapping occurrences.
Another package that provides functionality to count the occurrences of a substring in a string. It is similar to ccount but also includes the ability to count occurrences in arrays and objects, not just strings.
Readme
Count how often a character (or substring) is used in a string.
This package is a small utility that helps you find how frequently a substring occurs in another string.
I find this particularly useful when generating code, for example, when building a string that can either be double or single quoted. I use this utility to choose single quotes when double quotes are used more frequently, and double quotes otherwise.
