Question

Answer 1

If your string is a C-String, then you can use strlen(str).

If it is a NSString *str, then you can use NSUInteger lenght = [str length];

Answer 2

What type is your string? If it's an NSString, you find the length like this:

int len = [myString length];

But it will be different if your string is not an NSString.

Answer 3

Use length method, like this:

NSString *myString = @"Hello World";
int myLength = [myString length]; //myLength is now 11
