Example 1: Count Number of Digits in an Integer using while loop
Output
Number of digits: 4
In this program, the while loop is iterated until the test expression num != 0 is evaluated to 0 (false).
- After the first iteration,
numwill be divided by 10 and its value will be 345. Then, thecountis incremented to 1. - After the second iteration, the value of
numwill be 34 and thecountis incremented to 2. - After the third iteration, the value of
numwill be 3 and thecountis incremented to 3. - After the fourth iteration, the value of
numwill be 0 and thecountis incremented to 4. - Then the test expression is evaluated to false and the loop terminates.
Example 2: Using inbuilt methods
Output
6
In the above example, we first convert the integer value into string by using str(). Then, we find the length of the string using len().
