Output: 2
Explaination : The g in the regular expression (short for global) says to search the whole string rather than just find the first occurrence. This matches 'is' twice.function countOccurences(string, word) {
return string.split(word).length - 1;
}
var text="We went down to the stall, then down to the river.";
var count=countOccurences(text,"down"); // 2// String Prototype: myCount = myString.polycount("countThis")

// Arrow Function (STR): myCount = strCount(myString, "countThis")
const strCount = (stack, find) => stack.split(find).length - 1
// Array Prototype: myCount = myArray.polycount("countThis")
Array.prototype.polycount = function (criteria) {
return this.join("").split(criteria).length - 1 }
