fun CharSequence.padEnd(
    length: Int, 
    padChar: Char = ' '
): CharSequence

Returns a char sequence with content of this char sequence padded at the end to the specified length with the specified character or space.

import kotlin.test.*

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
//sampleStart
val padWithSpace = "125".padEnd(5)
println("'$padWithSpace'") // '125  '

val padWithChar = "a".padEnd(5, '.')
println("'$padWithChar'") // 'a....'

// string is returned as is, when its length is greater than the specified
val noPadding = "abcde".padEnd(3)
println("'$noPadding'") // 'abcde'
//sampleEnd
}

Parameters

length - the desired string length.

padChar - the character to pad string with, if it has length less than the length specified. Space is used by default.

Return Returns a char sequence of length at least length consisting of this char sequence appended with padChar as many times as are necessary to reach that length.

fun String.padEnd(length: Int, padChar: Char = ' '): String

println("'$padWithSpace'") // '125  '

val padWithChar = "a".padEnd(5, '.')
println("'$padWithChar'") // 'a....'

// string is returned as is, when its length is greater than the specified
val noPadding = "abcde".padEnd(3)
println("'$noPadding'") // 'abcde'
//sampleEnd
}

Parameters

length - the desired string length.

padChar - the character to pad string with, if it has length less than the length specified. Space is used by default.

Return Returns a string of length at least length consisting of this string appended with padChar as many times as are necessary to reach that length.
