Array to find strings

An array has an array to search for the number of times a string appears.

Currently, loop foreach traversal and counting are used in the project. Is there a better way?

Reply to discussion (solution)

Array_count_values () returns an array that uses the value in the input array as the key name and the number of times this value appears in the input array as the value.

You can use the preg_grep function, for example

$ A = array ('There is an array, ',' the number of times a string is to be searched. ',' The current project uses loop foreach traversal, ',' and then count, ',' is there a better way? ',); $ C = 'number'; echo count (preg_grep ("/$ c/", $ ));

The word "number" appears three times.
