How to Use the String Length Calculator

  1. Paste or type your string in the input field labeled "Enter your string". You can include letters, numbers, spaces, and special characters.

  3. The result will be displayed in characters. For example, "Hello World" (excluding the quotation marks) has a length of 10 characters.
  4. If you want to start over, click the "Reset" button to clear all inputs and results.

Working Principle

The calculator works by counting the number of characters in your input string. Each character, including letters, numbers, spaces, and special symbols, is counted as one unit. This differs from word count, which would only count separate words.

  • Checking if your text meets character limits for forms, social media posts, or code comments
