Hi,

Do you mean something like size() ?

No not like size.
lets say we have a
QStringList fonts;
fonts << "Arial" << "Helvetica" << "Times" << "Courier";

QString f1;
f1 = fonts[0];
QString f2;
f2 = font[1];

now f1 will be Arial and f2 will Helvetica.
So technically, QStringList fonts has 4 items.
so like this can i find the max number of items the QStringList has

QStringList inherits from QList<QString>
QList has two methods to count the number of items in the list,
int QList::size() const & int QList::count() const.

Example:-
QStringList list;
list << "a" <<"b" <<"c" <<"d" << "e" << "f";
qDebug() << list.count(); //or list.size(); ======> 6

There is another version for count(), whic is
int QList::count(const T & value) const
this one returns the number of occurrences of value in the list.

Example:-
QStringList list;
list << "a" << "c" << "a" << "f" << "a" << "a" << "b";
qDebug() << list.count("a"); =====> 4
