GT_STRCOUNT()

Count the number of times a substring appears in a string

Syntax

GT_StrCount(<cChrs>, <cStr>) --> nFreq

Arguments

<cChrs> - The substring to find the frequence of <cStr> - The string in which to find the character

Returns

<nFreq> - The number of times <cChrs> occurs in <cStr>

Description

GT_StrCount() counts how many times a specified substring appears in a string. If the substring does NOT appear in <cStr> this function will return 0. If the substring is a single character use GT_ChrCount() as it will be faster.
