Java begineers string manipulation/counting characters issue

Question

I am trying to count the number of terms in a string after it has been split... what is the best way for me to do so? this is the problem I am trying to solve:

Create a program that reads in one line from the user and repeats the line back with all four-letter words removed.

Here is what I have so far...

import java.util.*;

public class StringEx1{
        public static void main(String[]args){
            String mytext;
            Scanner ab= new Scanner(System.in);
            System.out.println("Enter text: ");
            mytext=ab.nextLine();
            String [] mytext=mytext.split(" ");

@Mick Mnemonic answered the question perfectly with "

In Java, length is a property (field) of the array, not a method; remove the parenthesis." Thank you for everyone's help!
