How to pad a string on both sides in TypeScript

Answer 1

function padBoth(str: string, totalLength: number, padChar: string = ' '): string {
    const half: number = Math.floor((totalLength - str.length) / 2);
    
    return str
        .padStart(str.length + half, padChar)
        .padEnd(totalLength, padChar);
}

console.log(padBoth("TS", 7, '*'));
