vowelCount

Language/Type: JavaScript functions return strings
Author: Melissa Medsker-Galloway (on 2016/11/18)

Write a function named vowelCount that accepts a string and returns the number of vowels (a, e, i, o, or u) that the string contains.

For example, the call of vowelCount("kookaburra") should return 5 (two o's, 2 a's, and one u). When passed a string without any vowels (such as an empty string, "01234", or "sky"), 0 should be returned.
