Returns the length of this string.

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] argv) {
    String str = "";
    System.out.println(str.isEmpty());
    System.out.println(str.length());
    
    str = "java2s.com";
    System.out.println(str.isEmpty());
    System.out.println(str.length());
