Prior to the 1990s, speculations about the occurrence of planets around other stars were based only on planet formation theory, observations of circumstellar disks, and the knowledge that at least one seemingly ordinary star is the host of four terrestrial planets, two gas giants, and two ice giants. Since then, Doppler and transit surveys have been exploring the population of planets around other Sun-like stars, especially those with orbital periods shorter than a few years. Over the last decade, these surveys have risen to new heights with Doppler spectrographs with a precision better than 1 m/s precision, and space telescopes capable of detecting the transits of Earth-sized planets. This article is a brief introductory review of the knowledge of planet occurrence that has been gained from these surveys.

The Gap-Giant Association: Are Planets Hiding in the Gaps?
For Kepler-48, -65, -90, and -139, a 1-20 Earth-mass planet could sit stably in the observed gap, but the outer giant cannot tilt it out of transit, disfavoring the secular explanation for the gaps.

Formation of Giant Planets
A comprehensive review argues that core accretion is the dominant pathway for giant planet formation, while gas disk fragmentation rarely produces planets.
