### pad Pads `string` on the left and right side if it's shorter than `length`. String is *NOT* truncated on both sides if it exceeds length. ```js const pad = (string, length = 8, char = ' ') => string.padStart((string.length + length) / 2, char).padEnd(length, char); module.exports = pad; ``` ```js pad('cat'); //> ' cat ' pad(String(42), 4, '0'); //> '004200' pad('foobar', 3); //> 'foobar' ```
