# count
Returns the number of elements in an array (or Countable object). Will return 0 for null.
Returns 1 for any other type (such as a string).
If the optional mode parameter is set to 1, count() will recursively count the array.
This is particularly useful for counting all the elements of a multidimensional array.
## Basic usage
```smarty
{if $myVar|count > 3}4 or more{/if}
{if count($myVar) > 3}4 or more{/if}
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|--------------------------------------------------------|
| 1 | int | No | If set to 1, count() will recursively count the array. |
