Character Counting Logic

$$\text{Character Count} = \sum_{i=1}^{n} 1$$

Each character in the input string is counted, including letters, numbers, spaces, and symbols. Optionally, whitespace or special characters can be excluded from the count.
Example:

Input: Hello world! → 12 characters (including space and punctuation)

The Character Counter helps writers, students, marketers, and developers track text length in real time. It’s especially useful for social media posts (Twitter, Instagram), meta descriptions, title tags, and input fields with limits. This tool supports Unicode characters and shows optional metrics like spaces, without spaces, and word count if needed.
