Your task is, to count how many pluses I have.

What Pluses?

  • The no plus: 0 Points
-
  • The naïve Plus: 1 Point
+
  • The double Plus: 2 Points
 +
+++
 +
  • The mega double plus: 3 Points
    +
   +++
    +
 +  +  +
+++++++++
 +  +  +
    +
   +++
    +

Pluses of higher order than 3 must be ignored.

Rules

  • Input will only consist of two characters - and +, and it will always be rectangular.
  • Input can be a string, an array or a binary matrix (then + is 1 and - is 0).
  • Output must be the sum of all detected pluses (trailing newline/ whitespace allowed).
  • Pluses can overlap (see Examples below)
  • Default I/O rules apply
  • Default Loop holes apply

Examples

MATL, 29 28 24 bytes

z2Y6ttX*,GbZ+5Mz=z]yytvs

Input is a binary matrix with 1 for '+' and 0 for '-'.

Try it online! Or verify all test cases.

Explanation

Convolution is the key to success

z       % Implicit input. Number of nonzeros. This is the number of naive pluses
2Y6     % Push [0 1 0; 1 1 1; 0 1 0] (predefined literal): pattern of double plus
ttX*    % Duplicate twice. Kronecker product: pattern of mega-double plus
,       % Do twice
  G     %   Push input again
  b     %   Bubble up third-topmost entry in the stack. This moves either the
        %   double of mega-double pattern to top
  Z+    %   2D convolution, maintaining size
  5M    %   Push the last input to the last function again: the pattern
  z     %   Number of nonzeros. This gives 5 or 25 for double or mega-double
  =     %   Equal? Element-wise. This detects if the result of the convolution
        %   equals the number of ones in the pattern, which implies that the
        %   pattern has been found
  z     %   Number of nonzeros. This is how many times the pattern has been found  
]       % End
yyt     % Duplicate the top two elements, then the top element. This effectively
        % gives weight 2 and 3 to double and mega-double pluses
vs      % Concatenate all stack contents. Sum. Implicit display

Try it online!

How?

Helper function

The helper function \$g\$ tests whether there's a 'Double Plus' inside the \$3\times3\$ submatrix whose top-left corner is located at position \$(x-X,y+Y)\$.

We start with \$k=6\$ and add \$46\$ to \$k\$ after each iteration. The relative coordinates in the submatrix are given by:

$$\begin{align}&dx=(k\bmod 27)\bmod 4\\ &dy=(k\bmod 5)\bmod 3\end{align}$$

  k | k%27 | dx=k%27%4 | k%5 | dy=k%5%3 | (dx, dy)          | 0 1 2
----+------+-----------+-----+----------+--------------  ---+-------
  6 |   6  |     2     |  1  |     1    | (+2, +1) (A)    0 | - C -
 52 |  25  |     1     |  2  |     2    | (+1, +2) (B)    1 | E D A
 98 |  17  |     1     |  3  |     0    | (+1, +0) (C)    2 | - B -
144 |   9  |     1     |  4  |     1    | (+1, +1) (D)
190 |   1  |     1     |  0  |     0    | (+1, +0) (C)
236 |  20  |     0     |  1  |     1    | (+0, +1) (E)

The cell at \$(+1, +0)\$ is tested twice, which is not an issue.

The next value of \$k\$ is \$282\$ which triggers the test k >> 8 and stops the recursion.

g = (X, k = 6) =>    // g is a recursive function taking X and a counter k
  k >> 8 || (        //   if k = 282, stop the recursion and return 1
    ( m[ y + Y +     //   otherwise, test the cell located at
         k % 5 % 3 ] //   row y + Y + ((k mod 5) mod 3)
      || 0           //
    )[ x - X +       //   and column x - X + ((k mod 27) mod 4)
       k % 27 % 4 ]  //
  )                  //
  & g(X, k + 46)     //   do a recursive call with k + 46

Main function

NB: Among many different possible choices, the initial value of \$k\$ in \$g\$ was forced to \$6\$ so that it allows us to do g(0, Y = 6) in the main function without breaking anything.

m =>                 // m[] = input matrix
m.map((r, y) =>      // for each row r[] at position y in m[]:
  r.map((c, x) =>    //   for each cell c at position x in r[]:
    t +=             //     add to t:
    c +=             //       1 point if c = 1
      g(Y = 0) && 2  //       2 points if there's a Double Plus at (x, y)
      + 3 *          //       3 points if there are also Double Pluses at:
      g(Y = 3) *     //         (x - 3, y + 3)
      g(-3) *        //         (x + 3, y + 3)
      g`` *          //         (x, y + 3)
      g(0, Y = 6)    //         (x, y + 6)
  ),                 //   end of inner map()
  t = 0              //   start with t = 0
) | t                // end of outer map(); return t

I want to say this is very golfable, but the entire approach is probably not the ideal one. Now agrees with Luis Mendo's MATL solution on a test case I made up, and at the cost of only one byte so that's cool I guess

This can probably be improved by a lot.

The helper function f scans the matrix. For each cell, it counts 1 iff the cell and the cells at distance k in each of the 4 directions are all worth 1. For k=1, this corresponds to checking the 4 neighbours, and creates a which encodes the centres of the double pluses. We then run f on a with k=3 to find the triple pluses. The entries near the edges end up as NA; they are ignored thanks to na.rm=T.

  • d=f"\+(?={s}\+\+\+{s}\+).." is the pattern for double plus (+ .. wich will be removed on the double plus check)

  • re.findall(<pattern>, a) returns a list containing all the matches of pattern.

  • len(re.findall()+2*re.findall()+3*re.findall() concatenate theses lists and return the length

A full program taking a Boolean matrix as its argument and printing the number of pluses. This is extensible to higher degrees of plus by changing the 3 at the beginning of the last line to a higher number. For example, here is a version that goes up to mega-mega-mega double pluses in a matrix of 82x82 1s.
