Biological Motivation

[Ivermectin][1] is a medication used to treat a variety of parasitic infections. These include head lice, scabies, river blindness, and strongyloides stercoralis. Ivermectin works by causing paralysis in the parasites, which leads to their death. The FDA has approved ivermectin for use in humans, and it is available as a cream, lotion, or pill.

Given: A DNA string $s$ of length at most 1000 nucleotides.

Return: Four integers corresponding to the number of times that the symbols A, C, G, and T occur in $s$.
