Find a string Python


Problem Statement :


In this challenge, the user enters a string and a substring. You have to print the number of times that the substring occurs in the given string. String traversal will take place from left to right, not from right to left.

NOTE: String letters are case-sensitive.


Input Format:

The first line of input contains the original string. The next line contains the substring.


Constraints:
1<=len(string)<=200
Each character in the string is an ascii character.


Output Format:

Output the integer number indicating the total number of occurrences of the substring in the original string.

        for j in range(len(sub_string)):
            if string[i+j]==sub_string[j] and j==(len(sub_string)-1):
                count=count+1  
            if string[i+j]!=sub_string[j]:
                break  
        if i==len(string)-len(sub_string):
            break            
    return count


if __name__ == '__main__':
    string = input().strip()
    sub_string = input().strip()
    
    count = count_substring(string, sub_string)
    print(count)

The Strange Function

One of the most important skills a programmer needs to learn early on is the ability to pose a problem in an abstract way. This skill is important not just for researchers but also in applied fields like software engineering and web development. You are able to solve most of a problem, except for one last subproblem, which you have posed in an abstract way as follows: Given an array consisting

Self-Driving Bus

Treeland is a country with n cities and n - 1 roads. There is exactly one path between any two cities. The ruler of Treeland wants to implement a self-driving bus system and asks tree-loving Alex to plan the bus routes. Alex decides that each route must contain a subset of connected cities; a subset of cities is connected if the following two conditions are true: There is a path between ever
