     The SIZE and LENGTH operators can be applied to any label.
 
     If you apply SIZE to a code label, it returns the NEAR or FAR
     attribute.
 
     The LENGTH operator always returns 1, since it is impossible to
     declare a code label with the DUP operator.
 
     The SIZE and LENGTH operators return 1 for strings.
