Count a character

Return how many times a given character appears in a C-string. Loop over the characters until the null terminator, adding 1 each time the current character matches target.

Complete int count_char(const char *s, char target) to return how many times target appears in the C-string s.

/* Count how many times target appears in s. Do not write main(). */
int count_char(const char *s, char target) {
    return 0;   /* change this */
}
