title: Count number of strings within a string?
body: <p>How would you go about counting the number of strings within a string using Powershell?</p>
  
  <p>For example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$a = "blah test &lt;= goes here / blah test &lt;= goes here / blah blah"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want to count how many times <code>&lt;= goes here /</code> appears in the above. </p>
