LENB(txt)
- where, Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle txt} is a text string whose length is to be determined.
LENB() returns the number of bytes used to represent characters in a text string.
Description
LENB(txt)
- LENB() counts 2 byte per character when default language is set as Double-byte Character Set (DBCS). Else LENB() counts 1 byte per character similar to LEN.
- Languages such as Japanese, Chinese, Korean etc support DBCS.
- Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle txt} can be any string containing characters, numbers, symbols, blank spaces etc.
- If argument Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle txt} is directly entered in the command, it should be enclosed in double quotes (e.g. "Name").

=LENB(A1) : Calculates the number of characters in a string referenced to cell A1. Displays 7 as the output. Character '#' is also counted.
=LENB(A3) : Calculates the number of characters in a string referenced to cell A3. Displays 7 as the output. Space and decimal point are also counted.
=LENB("<!#!>") : Displays 5 as the output.
Need to give examples with characters/language supporting DBCS
