Description
Implement LPAD and RPAD functions for string input values.
-
LPAD([string] basetext, [number] x, [optional string] padtext)
-
RPAD([string] basetext, [number] x, [optional string] padtext)
lpad - Prepends padtext to basetext in a way that allows as many characters as possible from padtext given an output string length of x. When x is less than or equal to the length of basetext, only characters from basetext are printed in the output. If padtext is omitted then spaces are prepended.
rpad - Appends padtext to basetext in a way that allows as many characters as possible from padtext given an output string length of x. When x is less than or equal to the length of basetext, only characters from basetext are printed in the output. If padtext is omitted then spaces are appended.
