Counting as per Programming is Confusing

Question

I have a doubt in Python

So if we define a variable and assign some strings value

eg:

name = 'Hacker'

As per Programming

The first letter 'H' will carry zero (0)

And 'r' will 5

When we use the function

len(name)

Why it will print 6 instead of 5

Answer 1

len function start Counting from 1 not from 0
But Indexing will start from 0.

Answer 2

Thanks for your answer 😀
