Hint

🧠 Not sure where to start?

Start by asking the user to input a list of numbers, separated by commas:

numbers_input = input("Enter a list of numbers separated by commas: ")

Now you need to convert that input into a list of integers. You can split the string by commas and use a list comprehension:

number_list = [int(n.strip()) for n in numbers_input.split(',')]

Then ask the user for the number they want to count:

target = int(input("Enter the number you want to count: "))

Finally, think about how to count how many times target appears in number_list. Maybe there’s a built-in method that can help? Or you can use a loop and a counter!
