# frozen_string_literal: true
# Returns the length of an Array, Hash, String, or Binary value.
#
# The returned value is a positive integer indicating the number
# of elements in the container; counting (possibly multibyte) characters for a `String`,
# bytes in a `Binary`, number of elements in an `Array`, and number of
# key-value associations in a Hash.
#
# @example Using `length`
#
# ```puppet
# "roses".length() # 5
# length("violets") # 7
# [10, 20].length # 2
# {a => 1, b => 3}.length # 2
# ```
#
# @since 5.5.0 - also supporting Binary
#
