get_length

Returns the positive length (>= 0) of this.

Note that this method is O(h) where `h' is the height of the tree. It is thus more efficient to use is_empty when comparing the length to zero.

Example: Get the length:

public static int main (string[] args) {
	Sequence<string> seq = new Sequence<string> ();
	seq.prepend ("amet");
	seq.prepend ("sit");
	seq.prepend ("dolor");
	seq.prepend ("ipsum");
	seq.prepend ("Lorem");

	// Output: ``5``
	print ("%d\n", seq.get_length ());

	return 0;
}

valac --pkg glib-2.0 GLib.Sequence.get_length.vala

Parameters:

this	a Sequence

Returns:

the length of this
