Pattern = TCTTATTTC
The "Pattern Count" algorithm identifies the number of times a specific pattern appears within a given text. This is a basic but fundamental operation in bioinformatics for tasks such as motif finding in DNA sequences. The algorithm works by sliding a window of the pattern's length across the text and counting the number of times the pattern matches the substring in the current window position. The result is the total count of the pattern's occurrences in the text.
