Key concepts: what is counted
With spaces is JavaScript string length. Without spaces is that length minus spaces, tabs, and line breaks. Bytes are UTF-8. Social networks, forms, and assignments differ on “with/without spaces,” so check the instructions first.
Example
Mix Hangul and English and you will see character count treat each Hangul syllable as 1, while bytes are larger for Hangul.
