Character Functions: Pattern Recognition. Many areas of engineering use problem solutions in which we search for a specific pattern of information in a signal. Problems develop a set of functions for this purpose.

Write a function that receives a pointer to a character string and a character. The function should return the number of times that the character occurred in the string. Assume that the function has the prototype statement

int charcnt(char *ptr, char c);
