Counting The Occurrences Of A Character In An Array Algorithm

ALGORITHM:

1. Get the input array of characters, “a[]”.
2. Get the input character to search, “char”.
3. Set the initial count of occurrences to 0: “count=0”.
4. Set the initial result to 0: “result=0”.
5. Find the length of the array by iterating through the elements of the array until the end is reached. Set “count” to the total number of elements in the array.

• Set “i” to 0
• Repeat until the end of the array is reached:
• Increment “i” by 1
• Increment “count” by 1

6. Iterate through each element of the array:

• Set “j” to 0
• Repeat until the end of the array is reached:
• If the element at index “j” is equal to the character “char”, increment “result” by 1.
• Increment “j” by 1

7. Print the number of occurrences of the character in the array.

• Print “result”.

CONCLUSION:

The Algorithm “Counting The Occurrences Of A Character In An Array” takes an input array of characters and a character to search, and outputs the number of times the given character appears in the array.
