Stroke count method

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The stroke count method is an input method editor in which the user enters the total number of strokes of a Chinese character, and chooses the desired character from a list that pops up. This method is sometimes used as a last resort when the user is unable to find the desired character by any other method.

It is not an efficient input method, as it often requires an exhaustive search. For example, there are more Chinese characters with 12 strokes than there are with any other number, so searching through a list of 12-stroke characters could take a long time.
