clear warning that this does not show the string length as you would normally understand it. Because I fell into it, not reading the edit since you just quickly copy and paste such a clear code statement.

| Oct 3, 2018 at 15:14 | comment | added | Tjaden Hess | I would argue that byte-length is the more important metric in most cases, since length in encodings like utf-8 is still upper-bounded by byte length. It seems rather arbitrary to assume that OP is using utf8 or any other particular encoding. | |
