WordPress: Count number of posts, exclude uncategorized

Using this code I can easily get the total number of posts:

$post_count = count_user_posts();
echo $post_count;

But I need the total to not include posts that are uncategorized.

  1. Use the following code and see the output:

    $args = array('posts_per_page' => -1,'category' => '-1',);
    $posts_array = get_posts( $args );
    echo count($posts_array);
    

    As default, id of uncategorized category is 1.
