Count the number of characters and words in Array

Question

How to count number of characters & words in array in C#?

For e.g.:

char[] arr= "My name is ABC XYZ".Tochararray();

should return 5 as number of words and 18 (space is counted as character) as number of characters.

Thanks!

You can't directly assign a string to an array of integers/chars in c#

string s = "My name is ABC XYZ";

int l = s.Length // 18 chars;
int w = s.Split(' ').Count(); // 5 words
