LENGTH ()

The LENGTH (str) and OCTET_LENGTH (str) functions return the byte length of a string, for example:

SELECT LENGTH ('MySQL string function') AS len1, OCTET_LENGTH ('MySQL string function') AS len2;len1 | len2 |-- +-+ 20 | 20 |

In utf8mb4 coding, a Chinese character occupies 3 bytes.

In addition, the CHAR_LENGTH (str) and CHARACTER_LENGTH (str) functions are used to return the character length of the string, that is, the number of characters. For example:

SELECT CHAR_LENGTH ('MySQL string function') AS len1, CHARACTER_LENGTH ('MySQL string function') AS len2;len1 | len2 |-- +-+ 10 | 10 |

The BIT_LENGTH (str) function returns the bit length (number of bits) of a string, for example:

SELECT BIT_LENGTH ('MySQL string function') AS len;len |-+ 160 |

A byte contains 8 bits.
