Computing Chinese character strokes

Chinese character stroke counting refers to the process of counting the number and order of strokes used to write a Chinese character. Every Chinese character is made up of one or more strokes that are written in a specific order and direction. The total number of strokes used to write a character can range from one to over twenty.Learning how to count strokes is an essential part of learning to read and write Chinese characters. It helps learners to recognize characters, remember how they are written, and differentiate between similar-looking characters.In general, Chinese characters are created by a set of brush strokes combined to form a character. Stroke counting is done by breaking down each of these characters into individual strokes and then determining the order in which they were written. This method is particularly useful when trying to differentiate between similar-looking characters or to look up unfamiliar characters in a dictionary.
