Default counting no. of times a character occurs in a cell

Can a function tell the number of times a particular character is occuring in
a text string in a particular cell?

A1 contains ABCD,ACDT,AKBL,BCDF,PIZQ

I would like to count no. of "commas" appearing (",") in this cell.

hellp appreciated, thanks
