How to Get total and Current Slide Number of Carousel

Question

Can you please let me know how I can get the total and current number of the carousel slides in bootstrap like the image below?

I have an standard Bootstrap carousel and a <div> with the .num class to display the total and current number and I used this code to retrieve the numbers but it didn't go through

$('.num').html(){   $('#myCarousel').carousel({number}) } 

Thanks

Update:

Please find a sample at this jsfiddle LINK

Each slide has a .item class to it, you can get the total number of slides like this

var totalItems = $('.item').length; 

Active slide has a class named as active, you can get the index of active slide like this

var currentIndex = $('div.active').index() + 1; 

You can update these values by binding the bootstrap carousel slid event like this

$('#myCarousel').bind('slid', function() {     currentIndex = $('div.active').index() + 1;    $('.num').html(''+currentIndex+'/'+totalItems+''); });
