This program asks for your name, you type in your name or whatever you want and press enter, then it will tell you how many characters (including spaces) are in the string.

import java.util.Scanner;
 
 public class YourProgramName
 {
 	public static void main (String [] args)
 	{
 		Scanner keyboard = new Scanner (System.in);	
 			
 		String name;
 		
 		System.out.println ("Enter Your Name");
 		name = keyboard.nextLine();
 		
 		int stringLength = name.length();
 		
 		System.out.println(stringLength);
 	}
 }
