# channelCount

Returns the number of channels.

## Declaration

```swift
var channelCount: Int { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion For example, the following code prints the number of channels in two interleaved buffers:  let x = vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.InterleavedFx2>(size: vImage.Size(width: 1,                                                                      height: 1))  let y = vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.Interleaved8x4>(size: vImage.Size(width: 1,                                                                      height: 1))

// Prints "2 4".  print(x.channelCount, y.channelCount)
