Why is my python find() function finding more values than in the string?

This is my code:

tempStorage = 'GOOD.LUCK'
print(tempStorage.find("."))

Instead of outputting 1, it outputs 4. Can someone tell me why?

Edit – I’m stupid, I confused count() with find()

>Solution :

You’re using str.find() which tells you the position.

You should use str.count() instead which counts the number of occurrences.

tempStorage = 'GOOD.LUCK'
print(tempStorage.count("."))
>>> 1
