   I just want the length of the string, where each character within that   
   string equals 1 & I want one way to get the length of any string.

   Title:     Wind, Sand and Stars   
   ISBN:      978-0156027496   
   Author:    Antoine de Saint-Exupéry   
   Year:      1939   
   Publisher: Mariner Books   
      
   Synopsis:  "Wind, Sand and Stars" is a poetic meditation on the adventures and   
   wonders   of   flight.  Drawing  from  his  own  experiences  as  an  aviator,   
   Saint-Exupéry  recounts  thrilling  tales  of navigating the open skies, while   
   also  delving  into  philosophical  reflections  on  the  nature of adventure,   
   friendship,  and  the  human  spirit.  The memoir serves as a testament to the   
   profound emotions evoked by the sheer beauty and danger of flight.
