String padEnd()

In JavaScript, String.padEnd() method is used to pad the ending of the string such that the resulting string is of specified length.

Syntax

str.padEnd(n, pad)

where

• str is a string.
• n is an integer.
• pad is a string.

padEnd() method makes a copy of the string str, pads given pad string to the end of calling string str such that the length of resulting string is n, and returns the resulting string. Original string str is not modified. If n is less than length of original str, then padEnd() returns original string str as is.

Examples

1. In the following program, we take a string in name, and pad this string at end such that the length of resulting string is 10.

let name = 'apple';
let output = name.padEnd(10, '#');
console.log(output);

2. In the following program, we check how padded() method behave when the desired string length n is less than length of original string.

let name = 'apple';
let output = name.padEnd(4, '#');
console.log(output);
