You are given a string S containing lowercase English alphabets and a character k.
Task
Count the number of occurrences of k in S.
Example
Assumptions
- S = "abdbs"
- k = "b"
Approach
- You can see that the number of occurrences of b in S is 2. Hence, the answer is 2.
Function description
Complete the solve function which takes a string S and a character k as the argument and returns the number of occurrences of k in S:
- S: Represents the string
- k: Represents the character
Input format
Note: This is the input format that you must use to provide custom input (available above the Compile and Test button).
- The first line contains a single integer T, which denotes the number of test cases. T also specifies the number of times you have to run the solve function on a different set of inputs.
- For each test case:
- The first line contains a string S.
- The second line contains the character k.
Output format
For each test case, print a single line representing the number of occurrences of k in S.
Constraints
\(1\leq T \leq 10 \\ 1\leq |S| \leq 10^5 \\ \)
