File Statistics
Calculate line counts, word count, character count, UTF-8 byte size, and average line length for any pasted text.
Run tool
Analyze any text to inspect exact structure metrics and size details directly in your web workflow. This online tool measures total lines, non-empty lines, word count, character count, and UTF-8 byte volume from your pasted input. It also calculates the maximum line length and the average line length rounded to two decimal places.
Line analysis separates non-empty lines containing visible text from blank or whitespace-only lines. Trailing line breaks do not generate artificial extra lines, ensuring consistent counts across multi-line snippets. Character counts reflect the total string length, while UTF-8 byte counts account for multi-byte Unicode characters and special symbols.
If you submit an empty input area, the tool displays zero values across all statistical fields. Paste documents, configuration snippets, CSV data, or code blocks to review detailed sizing metrics and verify line properties without manual counting.
Instructions
- Paste or type your text directly into the Text input box.
- Click the run button to process the text content.
- Inspect the resulting panel for line counts, word totals, character metrics, UTF-8 byte size, and line-length averages.
Examples
- Analyzing a three-line snippet with one blank line reports 3 total lines, 2 non-empty lines, word and character counts, and the exact average line length.
- Submitting text with accented characters or symbols calculates the exact UTF-8 byte size alongside standard character and word totals.
FAQ
How does the tool count non-empty lines versus total lines?
Total lines count every split line in the text. Non-empty lines include only those lines that contain at least one non-whitespace character.
How does UTF-8 byte count differ from character count?
The character count measures the total number of characters, whereas the byte count measures the storage size when encoded as UTF-8, where multi-byte characters take more than one byte.
What happens if the text input is left empty?
When the input is empty, the tool completes the analysis and outputs zero for every statistical metric, including lines, words, bytes, and line lengths.
Does a trailing newline create an extra line in the count?
No, a trailing newline separator at the very end of your text does not add an extra blank line to the line count.
