using strlen to check the length of a string and do something about it

in the following code i use the php function strlen to check the length of a string and then add an if statement to check if the string is longer or shorter than the required length. 

PHP

$mystring = "1234567890abcdef";
echo "test 1<br>";
if(strlen($mystring) >= 100) {
	echo "string length is over 100 characters";
} else {
	echo "the string is less than 100 characters";
}
echo "<br>test 2 <br>";
$mystring = "1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef";
echo "test 2 (should test over)<br>";
if(strlen($mystring) >= 100) {
	echo "string length is over 100 characters";
} else {
	echo "the string is less than 100 characters";
}
