Everything works good but one more thing how can i count number of characters in first element of the array? When it returns first element of array it has many characters e.g: GAGGTGCTGGGGAGCAGCGTGTTTGCTGTGCTTGATTGTGAGCTGCTGGGAAGTTGTGACTTTCATTTTA CCTTTCGAATTCCTGGGTATATCTTGGGGGCTGGAGGACGTGTCTGGTTATTATATAGGTGCACAGCTGG. how come i count these characters?
