The padEnd() method in JavaScript is used to pad a string with another string until it reaches the given length. The padding is applied from the right end of the string.
Syntax:
string.padEnd( targetLength, padString );
Parameters:
This method accepts two parameters as mentioned above and described below:
- targetLength: It is the length of the final string once the original string has been padded. If the value is less than the original string length, then the original string is returned.
- padString: It is the string that is to be padded with the original string. If this value is too long to be within the targetLength, it is truncated.
Return Value:
It returns the final string that is padded with the given string of the given length.
Example 1: This example uses the padEnd() method to pad strings into another string.
// Function to implement padEnd method
function padStrings() {
// Input methods
exString = "Hello";
exString2 = "Geeks";
// Implement padEnd methods to add symbols at end
output = exString.padEnd(12, "$");
output2 = exString2.padEnd(12, "Geeks");
// Display output
console.log(output);
console.log(output2);
}
// Function call
padStrings()
Output
Hello$$$$$$$ GeeksGeeksGe
Example 2: This example uses the padEnd() method to pad numbers into another number.
// Function to implement padEnd method
function padNumbers() {
// Input numbers
exNumber = 1234;
exNumber2 = 99;
// Implement padEnd
output = String(exNumber).padEnd(8, "0");
output2 = String(exNumber2).padEnd(8, "**");
// Display output number
console.log(output);
console.log(output2);
}
// Function call
