@Moshi I have included a summary of what I interpreted to be the original question so I hope no need to click on the `[Q]` - it was only there for attribution. Did you not also suggest expanding other (non-link) `Q`s? What about the grammar? (more) |

Hi @Moshi. I would not like to have to use the long-form of *question* every single time on a **Q**&A site. Sorry, can't see what grammar you have changed. I'm not sure but I suspect a space between `]` and `(` breaks a link. (more) |

A: How to calculate the Hamming weight of a binary string? I believe the answer at the moment is "No" but a very simple formula in LibreOffice 5.4.3.2 can achieve the desired result: =LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B1;0;"")) where B1 contains: =BASE(A1;2;8) as valid and A1 contains the number in decimal. The B1 cell would not be required with this ver... (more) |

A: Count the number of occurrences in a text string Although spreadsheets were never really intended for text processing, I think a formula solution is possible (LibreOffice 5.4.3.2): For the first example above: =(LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"XYZ","")))/LEN("XYZ") and for the second example: =(LEN(B1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B1,"Mary","")))/...

| Question | — |
Count the number of occurrences in a text string If I have some text in a cell, how can I find the number of times another piece of text appears in it? For example, suppose `A1` contains `Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.`. `pick` occurs 2 times in this string. What formula can I put in `A2` so that it counts the occurrences of `pick...
