??? ???? ?????. ?????
???? ??????????.
try this - create a table in a database with name as varchar of
length 5. And try to insert ???????? into it - it will
fail. Please also check the length of the same word in c, c++, perl,
java, lua, haskell, php, visual basic, C# and see what comes out.
Also try similar words in kannada, telugu, hindi. Then investigate
how these languages calculate the length of a string. You will find
that you will also need Tamil hardware to make your logic work. You
are trying to make the sun rise in the west ;-)
