--- title: strings.RuneCount description: Determines the number of runes in a string. godocref: date: 2018-06-01 publishdate: 2018-06-01 lastmod: 2018-06-01 categories: [functions] menu: docs: parent: "functions" keywords: [counting, character count, length, rune length, rune count] signature: ["strings.RuneCount INPUT"] workson: [] hugoversion: relatedfuncs: ["len", "countrunes"] deprecated: false aliases: [] --- In contrast with `strings.CountRunes` function, which strips HTML and whitespace before counting runes, `strings.RuneCount` simply counts all the runes in a string. It relies on the Go [`utf8.RuneCountInString`] function. ``` {{ "Hello, 世界" | strings.RuneCount }} <!-- outputs a content length of 9 runes. --> ``` [`utf8.RuneCount`]: https://golang.org/pkg/unicode/utf8/#RuneCount
