    //   example 1: replacingOccurrences('hello world', 'l', 'L')
    //   returns 1: 'heLLo worLd'
    //   example 2: replacingOccurrences('Swift swift SWIFT', 'swift', 'ts', true)
    //   returns 2: 'ts ts ts'
    //   example 3: replacingOccurrences('abcabc', 'ab', '#')
    //   returns 3: '#c#c'
