How to create code that searches for a word in a .txt file and counts the amount of times it occurs in C?
FYI I am fairly new to coding in C. I am looking for a way to search a .txt file for a certain word that is inputted by the user and counts the number of times it occurs within the .txt file. I currently have the .txt file in a 2D array. I have no idea how to even start. Please help!

You can start with the standard library function strstr. Read the description, and think about how you'd apply it to your 2D array (of, presumably, char*).
