A string is an array of char. I believe the fastedst way would be to loop
through the chars in the string, and count the '@' chars. Once you reach 5,
you return true. If you reach the end of the string without reaching 5, you
return false.

i need to know if there are exactly 5 @'s with or without text in
beetween.
i thought compiled regex would be faster than splitting and .length.
nethertheless, if you guy's say "OH NO!!!", i've no reason to demand
on it.
