String length

[md_sgf]

I have (finally) created an action block to easily count the number of characters in a string.

Is there any other ways to do this? Just interested. It works fine (for my small needs).

I'm unsure if I should clear the array at end. Do local action block variables stay in memory after exiting action block?

As @Dev777 just showed you, it's much more efficient: strlen is a Magic Text...

According to Action blocks, no you need not erase them as all variables are set to their default value before exiting.

I have no idea why i didn't that there! I've hunting "high and low" for that for ages! Couldn't see the tree for the forest!

I think this thread needs to be moved to Help and Troubleshooting forum now probably. lol
