Hint:

  • Set counter = 0
  • Run while loop till number != 0
  • In each iteration of loop
    • Reduce the last digit from the number using floor division ( number = number // 10)
    • Increment counter by 1
  • print counter

Solution:

num = 75869
count = 0
while num != 0:
    # floor division
    # to reduce the last digit from number
    num = num // 10

    # increment counter by 1
    count = count + 1
print("Total digits are:", count)
