Hi. How can I get total number of views in my carousel in a script? I tried wrapping it in len() or .length.

self.getSibling("Carousel").props.views (I need the length aka total # of views in the carousel)

`len` should work. How did you try it exactly ?  
And what was the result ?

Thank you very much. That worked perfectly. I am still learning and did not think of this. Greatly appreciated.
