Hint:

Use string method count().

Solution 1: Use the count() method

str_x = "Emma is good developer. Emma is a writer"
# use count method of a str class
cnt = str_x.count("Emma")
print(cnt)

Solution 2:Without string method

def count_emma(statement):
    print("Given String: ", statement)
    count = 0
    for i in range(len(statement) - 1):
        count += statement[i: i + 4] == 'Emma'
    return count

count = count_emma("Emma is good developer. Emma is a writer")
print("Emma appeared ", count, "times")
