Calling Sequence
Parameters
Description
Examples
Fill( ch, n )
ch
-
single character string
n
non-negative (32-bit) integer
The Fill procedure generates a filled string from a specified length and fill character. The first argument is a fill character (a Maple string of length equal to one) used to produce the string. The second argument is the length of the string to generate; it must be a 32-bit integer.
All of the StringTools package commands treat strings as (null-terminated) sequences of 8-bit (ASCII) characters. Thus, there is no support for multibyte character encodings, such as unicode encodings.
