+# Word Count for a Column
+
+Assuming I have a database with a posts table:
+
+```
+> select * from posts where id = 1;
+ id |  title   |              content               
+----+----------+------------------------------------
+  1 | My Title | This is the content of my article. 
+```
+
+I can compute the word count of the content of a given post like so:
+
+```
+> select sum(array_length(regexp_split_to_array(content, '\s+'), 1)) from posts where id = 1;
+ sum 
+-----
+   7 
+```
