char HighestCharCount(const char* str)
{

const int length = strlen(str);
if (length == 0)
return ' ';
if (length == 1)
return str[0];

int indexOfHighest = int(-1);
int highestCounter = 0;
for (int i=0; i < length; ++i)
{
const int remain = length - i;
char test = str[i];
int current = 0;
for (int j=i+1; j < remain; ++j)
{
if (str[j] == test)
{

namespace StringHighestCharacterOccur
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Enter the character string ");
string str = Console.ReadLine();

int[] max = new int[str.Length]; // this will store occurence count for each character

int count = 0;
for (int j = 0; j < str.Length; j++)

}
max[i] = count;
}
int maxvalue = max.Max();
int maxvalueindex = max.ToList().IndexOf(maxvalue); // this will give the index of character with max occurence
