Counts the words in a string.
GetWordCount(cString[, cDelimiters]) |
Parameters
- cString
- Specifies the string whose words will be counted.
- cDelimiters
- Optional. Specifies one or more optional characters used to separate words in cString. The default delimiters are space, tab, carriage return, and line feed. Note that GetWordCount(В ) uses each of the characters in cDelimiters as individual delimiters, not the entire string as a single delimiter.
Return Value
Numeric
Remarks
GetWordCount(В ) by default assumes that words are delimited by spaces or tabs. If you specify another character as delimiter, this function ignores spaces and tabs and uses only the specified character.
If you use "AAA aaa, BBB bbb, CCC ccc." as the target string for GetWordCount(В ), you can get all the following results.
