John Oliver chimes in on the encryption debate. As with most people that understand technology a little bit, I'm with John on this one. Warning: Language

are people too lazy to make their own function that they'll pay for http://left-pad.io/ if they need 1025+ 0's?
I make this function all the time, though, now ahk can do it with format(). it's so simple. takes like 30sec to write, or less.

sometimes i name it fill() sometimes pad(). depends what fits the project.

Code: Select all

msgbox % """" fill(3) "apples"""

num:=12
len:=3
msgbox % fill(len-strlen(num), 0) num

fill(qty=1, sym=" ")
{
	if (qty<=0 || sym="")
		return ""
	loop, %qty%
		out.=sym
	return out
}
rawr. fear me.

IMHO, this is more about reusable code rather than the simplicity of a single function. If I publish something that includes this and then someone uses my something to do stuff and that stuff gets puts into a bunch of things, it can be quite a problem when the original author un-publishes this simple function. All of a sudden, this function is not so simple any more.

left-pad.io (it could be a joke, but maybe not):
## Are there any limits?

Padding and the input string are limited to 1024 characters in the free
version, because we have to monetize to have enough runway to launch
`right-pad.io` in Q3 2017.

## Can I buy an enterprise license?

Yes. Email [email protected] with your account and ABA routing numbers.

## Who?
rawr. fear me.
