#C13154. Count Occurrences in a List
Count Occurrences in a List
Count Occurrences in a List
You are given a list of elements and a query element. Your task is to count the number of occurrences of the query element within the list. Two elements are considered identical if they match exactly (i.e. using the equality operator).
The problem can be formally described as follows: Given a list \(L = [a_1, a_2, \dots, a_n]\) and an element \(x\), compute the number of indices \(i\) for which \(a_i = x\).
Input/Output Format: The input will be provided via standard input (stdin) and the output should be written to standard output (stdout).
inputFormat
The input consists of two lines:
- The first line contains space-separated list elements. If the list is empty, this line will be empty.
- The second line contains the query element whose occurrences are to be counted.
Note that all elements are provided as strings. You should use exact string matching.
outputFormat
Output a single integer representing the number of occurrences of the query element in the list.
