Output the total number of String Characters [migrated]
- by Programmerwannabe
My Question is what method should I use if I wanted to get the total number of characters a user inputs? without using arrays, i tried using .length() but it did not return all characters say from the first and lastname, it only returned the first name.
Here's an example of my code. (Please dont laugh im really new in programming :) )
System.out.print("Enter your first and last name: ");
String yourName = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Your name has a total of " + yourName.length() + " numbers");
what happened was if i enter say "Neo Matrix" it would only return 3.
I appreciate any help. thank you!
