LEN
d = LEN(x)
Returns the length of the variable x.
The return value d depends on the type of the variable
x:
| Type | Return Value | 
|---|---|
| number | length of the STR(x) | 
| string | length of the string | 
| array | number of the elements | 
| map | number of the elements | 
Example
i = 10
f = 1.234
s = "abc"
dim a1(9)           ' Array with 10 elements
dim a2(9,9)         ' Array with 10x10 elements
m = {x:1, y:2, z:3} ' Map variable with 3 elements
print len(i)        ' Output: 2
print len(f)        ' Output: 5
print len(s)        ' Output: 3
print len(a1)       ' Output: 10
print len(a2)       ' Output: 100
print len(m)        ' Output: 3Code samples using LEN
