Actually str.len and len(str) is just like saying "the string's length"
and "the length of the string". There is no difference between the two
except for personal preference. (I am no linguist-- not even a native
speaker of English --but I think there is a subtle difference on
emphasis, "the string's length" emphasizes on the length being string's
property, while "the length of the string" emphasizes on the length
itself, am I correct?)
