Is the number of text messages determined by size of length of a text?

Question

Sometimes text messages have to be sent separately, is it because of the length or size (when emoticons are used)?

Answer 1

it depends on your phone, but most of them allow a txt to be 160 charactars (numbers symbols AND letters). Once it exceeds 160, yes you will have to send another message and yes, it will count as a separate message.

Answer 2

Most computers work in multples of 255 as it takes 1 byte (8 bits) to record the length of the text. One String (line of characters) is usually 256 characters long and the first byte of the 256 records the length (0..255).



Therefore text messages like to send in sets of 255.



Also 8, 16, 32, 64 and 128 are often used for the same sort of techincal reason.

Gosh! i wish i've got not indignant you. "Sorry if I even have" that is all meant to be in relaxing. If I even have i'll get rid of my answer.

Answer 4

I think its length. Emoticons take up more then one character, so that makes less text space available.
