Set the string first −

string str = "Hello World! Hello!";

Now check the string for the occurrences of a word “Hello’ and loop through −

while ((a = str1.IndexOf(pattern, a)) != -1) {
   a += pattern.Length;
   count++;
}

}
public static class Check {
   public static int CheckOccurrences(string str1, string pattern) {
      int count = 0;
      int a = 0;
      while ((a = str1.IndexOf(pattern, a)) != -1) {
         a += pattern.Length;
         count++;
