find length of a string in cpp code example

Example 1: length of string c++

// string::length
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

int main ()
{
  std::string str ("Test string");
  std::cout << "The size of str is " << str.length() << " bytes.\n";
  return 0;
}

Example 2: how to find the length of an string in c++

#include<iostream>
#include<cstring>
using namespace std;
main() {
   string myStr = "This is a sample string";
   char myStrChar[] = "This is a sample string";
   cout << "String length using string::length() function: " << myStr.length() <<endl;
   cout << "String length using string::size() function: " << myStr.size() <<endl;
   cout << "String length using strlen() function for c like string: " << strlen(myStrChar) <<endl;
   cout << "String length using while loop: ";
   char *ch = myStrChar;
   int count = 0;
   while(*ch != '\0'){
      count++;
      ch++;
   }
   cout << count << endl;
   cout << "String length using for loop: ";
   count = 0;
   for(int i = 0; myStrChar[i] != '\0'; i++){
      count++;
   }
   cout << count;
}
