I am trying to count number of dot .
in the string. I am trying with match()
function for counting the dot, but it does not working.
I tried same script to count other string, letter and -
which is properly working. I have following string
var string = "How are you doing . - today? You . - are such a nice person!";
I tried following script
var num = string.match(/-/g).length; // output 2
var num = string.match(/are/g).length; // output 2
var num = string.match(/a/g).length; // output 4
var num = string.match(/./g).length; // output 60
Can someone guide me why it match
function does not support .
and how can i count it. I would like to appreciate.
