# basic_json::count
```cpp
template<typename KeyT>
size_type count(KeyT&& key) const;
```
Returns the number of elements with key `key`. If `ObjectType` is the default `std::map` type, the return value will
always be `0` (`key` was not found) or `1` (`key` was found).
## Template parameters
`KeyT`
: A type for an object key.
## Parameters
`key` (in)
: key value of the element to count.
## Return value
Number of elements with key `key`. If the JSON value is not an object, the return value will be `0`.
## Exception safety
Strong exception safety: if an exception occurs, the original value stays intact.
## Complexity
Logarithmic in the size of the JSON object.
## Notes
This method always returns `0` when executed on a JSON type that is not an object.
## Example
??? example
The example shows how `count()` is used.
```cpp
--8<-- "examples/count.cpp"
```
Output:
```json
--8<-- "examples/count.output"
```
