Count matches

• str_count(): returns how many matches there are in each string.
• each match starts at the end of the previous match, regex matches don’t overlap.

x <- c("apple", "banana", "pear")
str_count(x, "p")

## [1] 2 0 1

str_count("abababa", "aba")

## [1] 2

str_view("abababa", "aba")

## [1] │ <aba>b<aba>
