Adding whitespaces to a string in C#

Question

I\'m getting a string as a parameter.

Every string should take 30 characters and after I check its length I want to add whitespaces to the end of the st

Answer 1

You can use String.PadRight method for this;

Returns a new string of a specified length in which the end of the current string is padded with spaces or with a specified Unicode character.

string s = "cat".PadRight(10);
string s2 = "poodle".PadRight(10);

Console.Write(s);
Console.WriteLine("feline");
Console.Write(s2);
Console.WriteLine("canine");

Output will be;

cat       feline
poodle    canine

Here is a DEMO.

PadRight adds spaces to the right of strings. It makes text easier to read or store in databases. Padding a string adds whitespace or other characters to the beginning or end. PadRight supports any character for padding, not just a space.
