String Character Length: Difference between revisions

For byte length, see [[String Byte Length]].

myStrVar.length()

'''Compiler:''' GCC 4.1.2

Length : constant Natural := Str'Length;

count of "Hello World"

count "Hello World"

From within any code block:

w=length("Hello, world!") # static string example

{print"The length of this line is "length($0)}

'''Standard:''' [[ANSI C]] (AKA [[C89]]):

}

// Return the length in unicode characters

unsigned length = [@"Hello Word!" length];

}

'''Platform:''' [[.NET]]

'''Language Version:''' 1.0+

Start = strlen "Hello, world!"

#len("Hello World")#

(length "Hello World")

LEN("Hello, World!")

"Hello World".size()

The 1994 ANS standard does not have any notion of a particular character encoding, although it distinguishes between character and machine-word addresses. (There is some ongoing work on standardizing an "XCHAR" wordset for dealing with strings in particular encodings such as UTF-8.)

'''Interpreter:''' [[GHC | GHCi]] 6.6, [[Hugs]]

strlen = length "Hello, world!"

'''Compiler:''' any IDL compiler should do

int length2 = str.codePointCount(0, str.length()); //1

JavaScript encodes strings in UTF-16, which represents each character with one or two 16-bit values. The most commonly used characters are represented by one 16-bit value, while rarer ones like some mathematical symbols are represented by two.

var len2 = str2.length; //2

//Store length of hello world in length and print it

. length = "Hello World".length();

" Hello world" @ , # 11

'''Interpreter:''' [[Standard ML of New Jersey | SML/NJ]] 110.60, [[Moscow ML]] 2.01 (January 2004)

val strlen = size "Hello, world!";

Basic version:

puts [format "length of \"%s\" in characters is %d" $s2 [string length $s2]]

With external utilities:

string='Hello, world!'

Len(string|varname)

Returns null if string|varname is null
