title: Output the total number of String Characters
body: <p>My Question is what method should I use if I wanted to get the total number of characters a user inputs? without using arrays, i tried using .length() but it did not return all characters say from the first and lastname, it only returned the first name. </p>
  
  <p>Here's an example of my code. (Please dont laugh im really new in programming :) )</p>
  
  <pre><code>System.out.print("Enter your first and last name: ");
  String yourName = keyboard.next();
  System.out.println("Your name has a total of " + yourName.length() + " numbers");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>what happened was if i enter say "Neo Matrix" it would only return 3.</p>
  
  <p>I appreciate any help. thank you!</p>
