[Javascript] String Padding in Javascript using padStart and padEnd functions

ES2017 added two new string functions. They are padStart and padEndfunctions. In this lesson, we will understand how to use these functions and a few usecases to demonstarte the power they offer.

const names = ['Joe', 'Pad', 'Sara']
const marks = [2, 30, 190]
const passOrFail = ["Fail", "Pass", "Pass"]

console.log(
    "Names".padStart(10), '|',
    "Marks".padStart(10), '|',
    "Pass/Fail".padStart(10), '|',
);

console.log("".padEnd(38, "-"));

for (let i = 0; i < names.length; i++) {
    const paddedName = names[i].padEnd(10)
    const paddedMarks = marks[i].toString().padEnd(10)
    const paddedStatus = passOrFail[i].toString().padEnd(10)
    console.log(paddedName, '|', paddedMarks,
        '|', paddedStatus, '|')
}
