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.
Javascript
// Function to implement padEnd methodfunction 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 callpadStrings() |
Output
Hello$$$$$$$ GeeksGeeksGe
Example 2: This example uses the padEnd() method to pad numbers into another number.
Javascript
// Function to implement padEnd methodfunction 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 padNumbers() |
Output
12340000 99******
