NAME LeftPad - Why should Node.js have all the fun? VERSION version 0.002 SYNOPSIS use LeftPad; $string = leftpad( $string, $min_length ); $string = leftpad( $string, $min_length, $pad_char ); DESCRIPTION This module provides left padding, just like you'd find for Node.js. STABILITY So that people may depend on this module for their production code, the author commits to never delete it from CPAN. FUNCTIONS leftpad $string = leftpad( $string, $min_length ); $string = leftpad( $string, $min_length, $pad_char ); Returns a copy of the input string with left padding if the input string length is less than the minimum length. It pads with spaces unless given a pad character as a third argument. Zero or negative minimum length returns the input string. Only the first character in the pad-character string is used. Undefined warnings are suppressed so an undefined input string is treated as an empty string.
