PadRight

Pads on the right to a width, with spaces or a given character.

Syntax

PadRight( s, width [, pad] )

Notes

• O(width)

Examples

#import "std/strings"
using strings

print PadRight( "tiko-lang", 12, "*" )    '' tiko-lang***
print PadRight( "tiko-lang", 12 )         '' tiko-lang    (spaces)

'' The result is ALWAYS exactly `width` -- longer input is truncated,
'' which is what makes a column line up whatever is in it
print PadRight( "tiko-lang", 4, "*" )     '' tiko
