# HumanEval/18
Implement a file **`solution.py`** that completes the function below. Keep the given name and signature; your file must define it at module level.
```python
def how_many_times(string: str, substring: str) -> int:
""" Find how many times a given substring can be found in the original string. Count overlaping cases.
>>> how_many_times('', 'a')
0
>>> how_many_times('aaa', 'a')
3
>>> how_many_times('aaaa', 'aa')
3
"""
```

from solution import * # noqa: F401,F403 (prompt helpers may be referenced by tests)
from solution import how_many_times as candidate
METADATA = {
'author': 'jt',
'dataset': 'test'
}
def check(candidate):
assert candidate('', 'x') == 0
assert candidate('xyxyxyx', 'x') == 4
assert candidate('cacacacac', 'cac') == 4
assert candidate('john doe', 'john') == 1
def test_he_018():
check(candidate)
Proposed solution
```
def how_many_times('', '', 'a') -> int:
""" Find how many times a given substring can be found in the original string. Count overlaping cases.
>>> how_many_times('', '', 'a') 0
>>> how_many_times('aaa', 'a') 3
