完整的示例:

public class CharacterCounter
{

  public static int countOccurrences(String find, String string)
  {
    int count = 0;
    int indexOf = 0;

    while (indexOf > -1)
    {
      indexOf = string.indexOf(find, indexOf + 1);
      if (indexOf > -1)
        count++;
    }

    return count;
  }
}

电话:

int occurrences = CharacterCounter.countOccurrences("l", "Hello World.");
System.out.println(occurrences); // 3

迟早会有循环发生。对你来说，编写(非常简单的)循环要比使用split之类的东西简单得多，后者比你需要的功能强大得多。

无论如何要将循环封装在一个单独的方法中，例如。

public static int countOccurrences(String haystack, char needle)
{
    int count = 0;
    for (int i=0; i < haystack.length(); i++)
    {
        if (haystack.charAt(i) == needle)
        {
             count++;
        }
    }
    return count;
}

那么你不需要在你的主代码中有循环-但循环必须在那里的某个地方。

import java.util.Scanner;

class apples {

    public static void main(String args[]) {    
        Scanner bucky = new Scanner(System.in);
        String hello = bucky.nextLine();
        int charCount = hello.length() - hello.replaceAll("e", "").length();
        System.out.println(charCount);
    }
}//      COUNTS NUMBER OF "e" CHAR´s within any string input

public static void getCharacter(String str){

        int count[]= new int[256];

        for(int i=0;i<str.length(); i++){


            count[str.charAt(i)]++;

        }
        System.out.println("The ascii values are:"+ Arrays.toString(count));

        //Now display wht character is repeated how many times

        for (int i = 0; i < count.length; i++) {
            if (count[i] > 0)
               System.out.println("Number of " + (char) i + ": " + count[i]);
        }


    }
}

下面的源代码会给你答案。在用户输入的单词中出现给定字符串的次数:-

import java.util.Scanner;

public class CountingOccurences {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        Scanner inp= new Scanner(System.in);
        String str;
        char ch;
        int count=0;

        System.out.println("Enter the string:");
        str=inp.nextLine();

        while(str.length()>0)
        {
            ch=str.charAt(0);
            int i=0;

            while(str.charAt(i)==ch)
            {
                count =count+i;
                i++;
            }

            str.substring(count);
            System.out.println(ch);
            System.out.println(count);
        }

    }
}

试试这个方法:

StringTokenizer stOR = new StringTokenizer(someExpression, "||");
int orCount = stOR.countTokens()-1;
