Length Of The Input Of Char .

I want to know the length of char in an input. Just like refering to the length of a string input as "str.length" in a for loop.

Char is intended to store only one character... so length is one... but if you are referring to char array like char ch[20], then the size is the 20... which represents 20 characters in the char array

Even in strings, length is the count of characters in that string. So for a character array you can use a simple for loop to find out the result.
