```python
def count_vowels(text):
    vowels = "aeiouAEIOU"  #fix vowels
    count = 0              #hold given string vovel counting
    for char in text:      #interat the given text by charecter
        if char in vowels: #test the current charecter is in univershal vowel list
            count += 1     #if found then incresee the count value
    return count           #at return the count value

print('Vovels - ', count_vowels("Python Programming"))
```

## Output:

```plaintext
Vovels -  4
```

## Explanation:

- Loop through each character in the string.
- If the character is in the set of vowels, increase the count.
- `"Python Programming"` → vowels are `o, o, a, i` → total 4.
