      The answer is that you type 2 characters to make a heart, which are the less than symbol < and 3, when together make a heart <3 And that’s only 2 characters, which is less than 3. So the answer is both the instructions on how to type a heart and the number of characters required to type a heart.

      <3 looks like a heart on its side. Mathematically speaking, it means less than 3. And since it’s 2 characters, that means the heart is less than 3, or <3

      Edit: I love how three of us decided to explain at the same time in three different ways.

      How many lemmings does it take to explain a joke? At least 3, it seems!
