Hi, Uday.

Kindly share the code that you have tried. It will be easy for us to understand your approach. I can give you answers no problem, but you will not learn it.

s=“udaybora”
count=0
for i in s:
count=count+1
print(count)

All the best!

I am learning this accumulator pattern and its bit hard for me to bucket it at this moment.
Thank you. The code has worked for me. I was even writing a code a bit similar to the one you have helped me with. I am still learning to initialize, interate and update methodology.

Thanks once again.
