pad

Syntax
int pad ( string sourcestring, string length, string padchar )
Description

pad returns a new string at the exact length of characters long. The beginning of the string is the sourcestring.

If the length argument is bigger than the size of the sourcestring, then the returned string is padded with the padchar argument. Otherwise, the first length characters of sourcestring are returned.

The padchar argument can also contain multiple characters, in which case the characters return padded repeatedly.

Example
result = pad("123",5," "); {
# returns "123"
}
result = pad("123",6,"<>"); {
# returns "123<><"
}
result = pad("User Name", 3, " "); {
# returns "User"

strindex

Syntax
int strindex( string str, string substr )
Description

strindex returns the numerical offset of a given string within another string. If the substr is not found, it returns -1.

Example
printf("%d\n",strindex("xxxfooxxx","foo"));

Returns: "3"

printf("%d\n",strindex("xxxfooxxx","bar"));

Returns: "-1"
