Returns number of characters stored for taxon whose index in the TAXA block is `i'. In an UNALIGNED block, each taxon can have a different number of characters, and this function can be used to find out how many characters are stored for any particular taxon. Note that `i' should be the index of the taxon of interest as it appears in the TAXA block. Because there may be fewer taxa in this UNALIGNED block (`ntax') than there are in the TAXA block (`ntaxTotal'), it is possible that no data were stored for the taxon having index `i', in which case a NxsUnalignedBlock::NxsX_NoDataForTaxon exception is thrown.
