![Task](http://static.miraheze.org/rosettacodewiki/thumb/b/ba/Rcode-button-task-crushed.png/64px-Rcode-button-task-crushed.png)
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
In this task, the goal is to find the byte length of a string. This means encodings like UTF-8 may need to be handled specially, as there is not necessarily a one-to-one relationship between bytes and characters, and some languages recognize this.
For character length, see String Character Length.
4D
$length:=Length("Hello, world!")
ActionScript
myStrVar.length()
Ada
Compiler: GCC 4.1.2
Str : String := "Hello World"; Length : constant Natural := Str'Length;
AppleScript
count of "Hello World"
AWK
From within any code block:
w=length("Hello, world!") # static string example x=length("Hello," s " world!") # dynamic string example y=length($1) # input field example z=length(s) # variable name example
Ad hoc program from command line:
echo "Hello, world!" | awk '{print length($0)}'
From executable script: (prints for every line arriving on stdin)
#!/usr/bin/awk -f {print"The length of this line is "length($0)}
C
Compiler: GCC 3.3.3
#include <string.h> int main(void) { const char *string = "Hello, world!"; size_t length = strlen(string); return 0; }
or by hand:
int main(void) { const char *string = "Hello, world!"; size_t length = 0; char *p = (char *) string; while (*p++ != '\0') length++; return 0; }
or (for arrays of char only)
#include <stdlib.h> int main(void) { char const s[] = "Hello, world!"; size_t length = sizeof s - 1; return 0; }
C++
Standard: ISO C++ (AKA C++98):
Compiler: g++ 4.0.2
#include <string> // note: not <string.h> int main() { std::string s = "Hello, world!"; std::string::size_type length = s.length(); // option 1: In Characters/Bytes std::string::size_type size = s.size(); // option 2: In Characters/Bytes // In bytes same as above since sizeof(char) == 1 std::string::size_type bytes = s.length() * sizeof(std::string::value_type); }
For wide character strings:
#include <string> int main() { std::wstring s = L"\u304A\u306F\u3088\u3046"; std::wstring::size_type length = s.length() * sizeof(std::wstring::value_type); // in bytes }
C#
Platform: .NET Language Version: 1.0+
string s = "Hello, world!"; int clength = s.Length; // In characters int blength = System.Text.Encoding.GetBytes(s).length; // In Bytes.
Clean
Clean Strings are unboxed arrays of characters. Characters are always a single byte. The function size returns the number of elements in an array.
import StdEnv strlen :: String -> Int strlen string = size string Start = strlen "Hello, world!"
ColdFusion
#len("Hello World")#
Common Lisp
(length "Hello World")
Component Pascal
LEN("Hello, World!")
Forth
Interpreter: ANS Forth
CREATE s ," Hello world" \ create string "s" s C@ ( -- length )
Haskell
Compiler: GHC 6.6
strlen = length "Hello, world!"
IDL
Compiler: any IDL compiler should do
length = strlen("Hello, world!")
Java
Java encodes strings in UTF-16, which represents each character with one or two 16-bit values. The length method of String objects returns the number of 16-bit values used to encode a string, so the number of bytes can be determined by doubling that number.
String s = "Hello, world!"; int byteCount = s.length() * 2;
An other way to know the byte length of a string is to explicitly specify the charset we desire.
String s = "Hello, world!"; int byteCountUTF16 = s.getByte("UTF-16").length; int byteCountUTF8 = s.getByte("UTF-8").length;
JavaScript
JavaScript encodes strings in UTF-16, which represents each character with one or two 16-bit values. The length property of string objects gives the number of 16-bit values used to encode a string, so the number of bytes can be determined by doubling that number.
var s = "Hello, world!"; var byteCount = s.length * 2; //26
JudoScript
//Store length of hello world in length and print it . length = "Hello World".length();
Lua
Interpreter: Lua 5.0 or later.
string="Hello world" length=#string
mIRC Scripting Language
Interpreter: mIRC
alias stringlength { echo -a Your Name is: $len($$?="Whats your name") letters long! }
OCaml
Interpreter/Compiler: Ocaml 3.09
String.length "Hello world";;
Perl
Interpreter: perl 5.8
Strings in Perl consist of characters. Measuring the byte length therefore requires conversion to some binary representation (called encoding, both noun and verb).
use utf8; # so we can use literal characters like ☺ in source use Encode qw(encode); print length encode 'UTF-8', "Hello, world! ☺"; # 17. The last character takes 3 bytes, the others 1 byte each. print length encode 'UTF-16', "Hello, world! ☺"; # 32. 2 bytes for the BOM, then 15 byte pairs for each character.
PHP
$length = strlen('Hello, world!');
PL/SQL
DECLARE string VARCHAR2( 50 ) := 'Hello, world!'; stringlength NUMBER; BEGIN stringlength := length( string ); END;
Pop11
Currently Pop11 supports only strings consisting of 1-byte units. Strings can carry arbitrary binary data, so user can for example use UTF-8 (however builtin procedures will treat each byte as a single character). The length function for strings returns length in bytes:
lvars str = 'Hello, world!'; lvars len = length(str);
Python
Interpreter: Python 2.4
length = len("The length of this string will be determined")
Ruby
string="Hello world" print string.length
or
puts "Hello World".length
Scheme
(string-length "Hello world")
Smalltalk
string := 'Hello, world!". string size.
Standard ML
Interpreter: SML/NJ 110.60, Moscow ML 2.01 (January 2004)
Compiler: MLton 20061107
val strlen = size "Hello, world!";
Tcl
Basic version:
string bytelength "Hello, world!"
or more elaborately, needs Interpreter any 8.X. Tested on 8.4.12.
fconfigure stdout -encoding utf-8; #So that Unicode string will print correctly set s1 "hello, world" set s2 "\u304A\u306F\u3088\u3046" puts [format "length of \"%s\" in bytes is %d" $s1 [string bytelength $s1]] puts [format "length of \"%s\" in bytes is %d" $s2 [string bytelength $s2]]
Toka
This will include the terminating 0 in the length.
" hello, world!" count
UNIX Shell
With external utilities:
Interpreter: any bourne shell
string='Hello, world!' length=`echo -n "$string" | wc -c | tr -dc '0-9'` echo $length # if you want it printed to the terminal
With SUSv3 parameter expansion modifier:
Interpreter: Almquist SHell (NetBSD 3.0), Bourne Again SHell 3.2, Korn SHell (5.2.14 99/07/13.2), Z SHell
string='Hello, world!' length="${#string}" echo $length # if you want it printed to the terminal
VBScript
LenB(string|varname)
Returns the number of bytes required to store a string in memory Returns null if string|varname is null
xTalk
Interpreter: HyperCard
put the length of "Hello World"
or
put the number of characters in "Hello World"
