出于好奇，我试着对其进行基准测试……

import org.junit.Test;
import static org.junit.Assert.*;


public class TestStack1306727 {

    @Test
    public void bench(){
        int number=1000;
        int a= String.valueOf(number).length();
        int b= 1 + (int)Math.floor(Math.log10(number));

        assertEquals(a,b);
        int i=0;
        int s=0;
        long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
        for(i=0, s=0; i< 100000000; i++){
            a= String.valueOf(number).length();
            s+=a;
        }
        long stopTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
        long runTime = stopTime - startTime;
        System.out.println("Run time 1: " + runTime);
        System.out.println("s: "+s);
        startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
        for(i=0,s=0; i< 100000000; i++){
            b= number==0?1:(1 + (int)Math.floor(Math.log10(Math.abs(number))));
            s+=b;
        }
        stopTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
        runTime = stopTime - startTime;
        System.out.println("Run time 2: " + runTime);
        System.out.println("s: "+s);
        assertEquals(a,b);


    }
}

结果如下:

Run time 1: 6765
s: 400000000
Run time 2: 6000
s: 400000000

现在我想知道我的基准测试是否真的意味着什么，但我确实在基准测试本身的多次运行中得到了一致的结果(一毫秒内的变化)……:)看起来这是无用的尝试和优化…

编辑:根据ptomli的注释，我在上面的代码中用' I '替换'number'，并在5次运行的bench中得到以下结果:

Run time 1: 11500
s: 788888890
Run time 2: 8547
s: 788888890

Run time 1: 11485
s: 788888890
Run time 2: 8547
s: 788888890

Run time 1: 11469
s: 788888890
Run time 2: 8547
s: 788888890

Run time 1: 11500
s: 788888890
Run time 2: 8547
s: 788888890

Run time 1: 11484
s: 788888890
Run time 2: 8547
s: 788888890

理想情况下，一个整数除以10的倍数将返回位数，只要该整数不为零。这样一个简单的方法可以创建如下所示。

public static int getNumberOfDigits(int number) {
    int numberOfDigits = 0;                
    while(number != 0) {
        number /= 10;
        numberOfDigits++;
    }
    
    return numberOfDigits;
}

一个非常简单的解决方案:

public int numLength(int n) {
  for (int length = 1; n % Math.pow(10, length) != n; length++) {}
  return length;
}

最快的方法:分而治之。

Assuming your range is 0 to MAX_INT, then you have 1 to 10 digits. You can approach this interval using divide and conquer, with up to 4 comparisons per each input. First, you divide [1..10] into [1..5] and [6..10] with one comparison, and then each length 5 interval you divide using one comparison into one length 3 and one length 2 interval. The length 2 interval requires one more comparison (total 3 comparisons), the length 3 interval can be divided into length 1 interval (solution) and a length 2 interval. So, you need 3 or 4 comparisons.

没有除法，没有浮点运算，没有昂贵的对数，只有整数比较。

代码(长但快):

if (n < 100000) {
    // 5 or less
    if (n < 100){
        // 1 or 2
        if (n < 10)
            return 1;
        else
            return 2;
    } else {
        // 3 or 4 or 5
        if (n < 1000)
            return 3;
        else {
            // 4 or 5
            if (n < 10000)
                return 4;
            else
                return 5;
        }
    }
} else {
    // 6 or more
    if (n < 10000000) {
        // 6 or 7
        if (n < 1000000)
            return 6;
        else
            return 7;
    } else {
        // 8 to 10
        if (n < 100000000)
            return 8;
        else {
            // 9 or 10
            if (n < 1000000000)
                return 9;
            else
                return 10;
        }
    }
}

基准测试(在JVM预热之后)——查看下面的代码以了解基准测试是如何运行的:

基线方法(使用String.length): 2145毫秒 Log10方法:711ms = 3.02次 和基线一样快 重复除:2797ms = 0.77次 和基线一样快 分治:74ms = 28.99 时间和基线一样快

Edit

在我写完基准测试之后，我偷偷地看了一下Integer。toString来自Java 6，我发现它使用:

final static int [] sizeTable = { 9, 99, 999, 9999, 99999, 999999, 9999999,
                                  99999999, 999999999, Integer.MAX_VALUE };

// Requires positive x
static int stringSize(int x) {
    for (int i=0; ; i++)
        if (x <= sizeTable[i])
            return i+1;
}

我以我的分治方案为基准:

分治法:104毫秒 Java 6解决方案-迭代和比较:406ms

我的速度大约是Java 6解决方案的4倍。

我看到有人使用String库，甚至使用Integer类。这没什么问题，但是求位数的算法并不复杂。我在这个例子中使用的是long类型，但它也可以用于int类型。

 private static int getLength(long num) {

    int count = 1;

    while (num >= 10) {
        num = num / 10;
        count++;
    }

    return count;
}

对数是你的朋友:

int n = 1000;
int length = (int)(Math.log10(n)+1);

NB:只对n >有效0。
