In this video, we will learn about count() method of list object, its syntax, and examples.
count() method counts the number of occurrences of a given item in the list. And it returns that count value.
The syntax of count() method is:
list.count(x)
where, x is the search item in the list, whose number of occurrences in the list has to be counted.
Consider a list of items with some items in the list, where the item x occurs three times.
When we call count() method on this list with item x passed as argument, the method counts the number of occurrences of item in the list x, and returns that count value.
