Sorry for voice in this video, my voice is still getting recovered. It will be fine in next couple of days. Tried my best to prepare a 10 mins video :) Thanks all for your love and support.

Thank you for the interesting video. If I may provide a suggestion - the purpose of this question is to see if the candidate understands the fact that String class is a wrapper around an array of chars in memory, and provides many utility methods over this array (such as length). So getting the char array representation and looping over it with a counter is enough and the right output. The other “ways” are not the right ways even though they give the right answer. No one would compile a regex, or catch an exception to get the length of a string; they’re counterintuitive, expensive, and inefficient.

So good to hear your voice after so long. God bless you 🙏🏻

Hi Naveen this one workes to : it will return an int (the deference betwen the str length() and 0)

A better question would be "Why would you need to know the length of a string?" One answer may be "To check for zero length". Then the next question would be "How was the string ever allowed to become zero length?" This leads to a much better evaluation of the person's overall approach to coding and level of skill.

[harshshah]

I usually ask this question as my last question, to all the candidates whom I select for next round and its strange that 50% people cannot answer this question :(

String st2 = "Naveen";

int count = 0;

char ar2[] = st2.toCharArray();

for (char pg : ar2)
{
count++;
}
System.out.println("Length of string is" + count);

O/p :- Length of string is 6
