C-Sharp PadLeft Example Syntax - C# String Function - Sample Code

Description: Illustrates the C# Syntax for PadLeft.

Example Class Main:

using System;
public class clsPadLeft
{
 
    public void Main()
    {
 
 
 
        //****************************************************************************************
        // Example #1: PadLeft(totalWidth [, paddingCharacter])
        // Returns a string that is right-aligned and padded on left with character specified.
        // If no padddingCharacter is specified, space is used. totalWidth is total width of column
        // This allows you to create a nice straight column even though lengths of text vary.
        //****************************************************************************************
 
        Console.WriteLine("Example #1: PadLeft(totalWidth [, paddingCharacter]) ");
 
        string strPadLeftExampleA = "This is a test string";
        string strPadLeftExampleB = "short";
        string strPadLeftExampleC = "longer";
 
 
 
        // PadLeft "simple" before "test"
        Console.WriteLine(strPadLeftExampleA.PadLeft(35));
        Console.WriteLine(strPadLeftExampleB.PadLeft(35));
        Console.WriteLine(strPadLeftExampleC.PadLeft(35));
 
        //write blank line to make output easier to read
        Console.WriteLine();
        //Prevent console from closing before you press enter
        Console.ReadLine();
 
    }
 
 
}

Example Class Program:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
 
namespace CSharp_Syntax
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
 
 
            clsPadLeft myPadLeft = new clsPadLeft();
            myPadLeft.Main();
 
        }
    }
}
