C# - Creating a method that returns a value of type int?

Question

Parsing

Let's say I have a method in whose parameters you can only write a string and this method calculates the number of characters ("-") in this string, but how to do it so that

//...там же этот метод скажем scanner
static void Main()
        {
string ty = Console.ReadLine();
int razd = scanner(ty);
 
}

Thank you!

Are you talking about this??

int sanner(string str)
{
return str.Length;
}
