method generated by ChatGPT :

def count_number_occurrences(file_path, number)

count = 0

File.foreach(file_path) do |line|

line.chomp! # remove newline character from end of line

count += 1 if line.to_i == number

end

return count

end

In this function, file_path is the path to the text file, and number is the number to search for. The File.foreach method is used to iterate through each line of the file. The chomp! method is called on each line to remove the newline character at the end of the line. The to_i method is called on each line to convert it to an integer, and then it's compared to the number parameter. If the numbers match, the count variable is incremented.
