The problem become 'what do you mean by strlen()' - the space the
characters will occupy in an constant width font, or the storage
allocated to the string?

Mostly we are concerned with the latter.

Because lack of precision in font reproduction, or even in guaranteeing
which font may be selected, renders the former an 'open' question.

strlen('€')===3 is in fact the correct answer.

Ineptocracy

(in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) – a system of government where the least capable to
lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the
members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are
rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a
diminishing number of producers.
