That is not true. This program prints "2" when compiled under Turbo
Pascal:
I am fairly certain that he confuses this with the special case of
applying sizeof() to a string type, where you always get one byte
more (the preceding length byte) than the string type has been
defined, for example SizeOf (String [80]) will return 81, 80 bytes
reserved for the contents plus the length byte...
