Problem Statement

Write a C program to find the frequency of a given character in a string.

Input Format

First line contains a string. Second line contains the target character.

Output Format

Print the frequency of the character.

Constraints

Length <= 100

Sample Input

programming
g

Sample Output

Explanation

Iterate through the string and increment a counter each time the character matches the target.

Starter Code

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    char str[101];
    if (scanf("%100s", str) == 1) {
        char ch;
        scanf(" %c", &ch);
        // Write your code here to count character frequency
    }
    return 0;
}

Intermediate

Embedded systems rely on efficient low-level programming to interact directly with hardware. In this course, you will learn how to write practical Embedded C programs used in real microcontroller-based systems. Rather than focusing only on theory, this course follows a practice-driven approach. Each lesson includes hands-on coding exercises that simulate real firmware development tasks used
