ruby - Comparing a string with an array of strings and printing the count

Question

I'm comparing a string to an array of strings using:

arry.include? (mystring)

and it returns a boolean value. How can I print out how many strings in that array equaled to mystring?

Answer 1

array.count(mystring)

["Cat", "Dog", "Cat"].count("Cat") #=> 2

["Cat", "Dog", "Cat"].count("Dog") #=> 1
