[PYTHON] Scan and count for most repeated string

[131]

Hii, so I am trying to make a bit of code where it will scan a string and count the amount of repeated words. I believe the pseudo code would be something like this?

readme = "Hello hello hello hello I am cool"
repeats = readme.count(repeatedwords)

So it like makes a int variable called repeats, then reads my string and detects a repeated word and counts it. So repeats would = 4 because it says "Hello" four times..

I hope this makes sense kek

Code:

from collections import Counter import re reg = re.compile('\S{4,}') s = "hello this is hello this is baby baby baby baby hello" c = Counter(ma.group() for ma in reg.finditer(s)) print c
 

result
Counter({'baby': 4, 'hello': 3, 'this': 2})

This is printing it? I need to have one answer and I need it in a int variable so the result would be
count = 4
I have literally scoured google for the answer and couldn't find shit

Code:

readMe = "test test gay"
readmeList = readMe.split()
words = set(readmeList)
countList = []
for word in words:
    countList.append((word,":",readMe.count(word)))
print(countList)

This is a really awkward way to do it but im not at my main PC atm but this works, the variable is countList
