Count A Letter

Read one word and count how many times the lower-case letter a appears in it, using a for loop over the characters and an if that compares each one with 'a', then print the result in the form a appears <count> times. Input: one line, the word, no prompt. A word with no a prints a count of 0.

Expected Output:

a appears 3 times

= newline. The output ends with a newline — print one after the last line.
