There are so many better tools for this kind of thing.

For counting letters in a word? That's like a one line expression in Python or JavaScript (and other languages). JavaScript console is right there in your browser.

if javascript can do it,tell me how to do it?

const countOfT = (word) => word.split('').filter(i => i === 't').length
countOfT('colonialism')
0 

countOfT('this is an example sentence')
2 

There's probably a more elegant way to do it.
