C# String Padding

In C#, you can pad strings to ensure they have a certain length by using the PadLeft() or PadRight() methods. These methods add spaces or other characters to the beginning or end of the string.

Example

string message = "123";
Console.WriteLine(message.PadLeft(5, '0'));  // Outputs "00123"
Console.WriteLine(message.PadRight(6, '-'));  // Outputs "123---"

Output:

00123 123---

Code Explanation: The PadLeft() method pads the string with zeros on the left to ensure it has a length of 5, while PadRight() pads the string with dashes on the right to ensure a length of 6.
