$$count()count()$$

The count() function returns the number of elements in the range $$[first,last)[first,\; last)$$ satisfying specific criteria.

Demo count()

int main() {
    vector<int> v{2, 2, 4, 8};
    cout << count(v.begin(), v.end(), 2);
    return 0;
}

count_if()

count_if function returns the number of element for which predicates p returned true for the range $$[first,last)[first,\; last)$$.

count_if demo

Count the number of elements which are divisible by 2

int main() {
    vector<int> v{2, 2, 4, 8};
    cout << count_if(v.begin(), v.end(), [](int a) { return a % 2 == 0; });
    return 0;
}
