Count number of occurrences of a number

Given a sorted array arr[] and a number x, write a function that counts the occurrences of x in arr[]. Expected time complexity is O(Logn)
Examples:
  Input: arr[] = {1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3,},   x = 2
  Output: 4

  1. we can apply a variant of binary search
    we can find d first and last occurence of the element in the array
    no. of occurencec= last-first+1
