Point Me In The Right Direction.

Right im completly stumped on something, i cant even think about how to go about this. Basically I need to find out how many characters are in an string. So for instance how would I go about finding the amount of characters in:


"abc" or "a/bc"

Thanks :)

Every string is an instance of the String class. Here the methods of the String class. Also find time to read this.
