#include <stdio.h>

#define MAX_SIZE 100 //Maximum size of the string

int main()

    search = getchar();

    count = 0;
    for(i=0; string[i]!='\0'; i++)
    {
        /*
         * If character is found in string then
         * increment count variable
         */
        if(string[i] == search)
        {
            count++;
        }
