Jun 11, 2014 at 18:43 comment added Szabolcs Using the new composition operator in Mathematica 10, we could even just write a function as Length@*StringCases. This is shorter than Length@StringCases[##]& if we were to go for just writing a function but not actually apply it to a and b.

Jun 11, 2014 at 18:25 comment added DavidC Thanks. I forgot about StringCases. It was unclear to me what the OP meant by the language's API.
Jun 11, 2014 at 17:53 comment added Szabolcs Length@StringCases[a,b] is shorter. This problem is not well specified because if we're not allowed to use StringCount, it's not clear whether any of the other builtin String* functions should be allowed either ... they're all based on the same underlying code.
