    The answer is 6. It’s 6 characters long.

      Not really, no. That would be the answer if x= len(day). The code in the image would just throw an error.

        Yea, it’s pseudo code.

          There technically is!

          Well. In browsers, anyways.

            Yes, but it prints the page, so in this case it wouldn’t print anything

          function print(str) {
            console.log(str)
          }
          

          FTFY

            You don’t need terminating semicolons in JavaScript. They’re added in if missing. It can actually cause a few bugs around returns.

        no it wouldn’t, because this is OCR reference language

          What the heck, did someone invent a programming language, so students wouldn’t have to learn any real ones?

            Having done OCR GCSE computing:
            It’s just a pseudocode style language that they use in exam questions so that you can understand the question regardless of which language your school had you study (in my case it was VB6 💀). In questions where you are asked to write code, you can use the reference language but realistically you just use the one you learned (although I did it all in python instead)

          Huh interesting. In Scotland we had another one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haggis_(programming_language)
