Generally you have no way of doing this, unless you implement some way for this yourself (like having a bolean array, where True = used, False = not used.
With strings however, they always end with a NULL terminator ( '\0' ) when the string ends. The easiest way of getting the size used is to call strlen(). It calculates the number of characters before this NULL terminator.
