rpad
Syntax
rpad(str, length, [pattern])
Arguments
str is a string scalar or vector. It is the string to pad characters to (the right-hand side).

length is smaller than the length of str, the
rpad
function will truncate str to the size of
length.
pattern (optional) is a string scalar. It is the string that will be padded to
the right-hand side of str. If it is unspecified, the rpad
function
will pad spaces to the right-side of str.
