如何正确显示特定单词在用户给定输入中出现的次数？

Question

I am just starting python so I am working out exercises. I came across this one.

Question: Given a string of n words, help Alex to find out how many times his name appears in the string.

Constraint: 1 <= n <= 200

Sample input: Hi Alex WelcomeAlex Bye Alex.

Sample output : 3

My code for this:

string =input("Enter input")
print(string.count(string)) 

But this is not giving required output. How can I change this? Please help. Thanks.

Answer 1

Austin is correct.

string =input("Enter input")
print(string.count('Alex')) 

This should give you what you wanted. Thank You
