function count_array_values($my_array, $match)
{
    $count = 0;
   
    foreach ($my_array as $key => $value)
    {
        if ($value == $match)
        {
            $count++;
        }
    }
   
    return $count;

$colors = array("c1"=>"Red", "c2"=>"Green", "c3"=>"Yellow", "c4"=>"Red");

echo "\n"."Red color appears ".count_array_values($colors, "Red"). " time(s)."."\n";
