Find the Length of a String in C++

In this code example we will show how to get the length of a string in C++

There are 2 ways to do this in this code example

You can get the length of a string object by using a size() function or a length() function.

Example

#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>

using namespace std;

int main() 
{
    char myString1[] = "This is my test string";
    string myString2 = "This is my test string";
	//using  strlen
    cout << "strlen - String Length = " << strlen(myString1) << "\n";
 	//using str.size()
    cout << "str.size- String Length = " << myString2.size();
    return 0;
}

 

strlen - String Length = 22
str.size- String Length = 22
