No no, don't tell us what you need help about! I love guessing games!

Let me see now... I'm guessing that your problem is that don't know how 
to work out the length of a string. Here's one way:

string = "something"
count = 1
for char in string:
    count *= 10

import math
print "The string has", math.log10(count), "characters."

 
There's probably a shorter way too.
