Default: `''`.\n-   **rpad**: `string` used to right pad. Default: `' '`.\n-   **centerRight**: `boolean` indicating whether to center right in the event of a tie. Default: `false` (i.e., center left).\n\nBy default, an input `string` is padded with spaces. To pad with a different character or sequence of characters, provide a pad `string`.\n\n```javascript\nvar str = pad( 'a', 10, {\n    'lpad': 'b'\n});\n// returns 'bbbbbbbbba'\n\nstr = pad( 'a', 12, {\n    'rpad': 'b'\n});\n// returns 'abbbbbbbbbbb'\n```\n\nTo center an input `string`, provide both `lpad` and `rpad` options.\n\n```javascript\nvar opts = {\n    'lpad': 'a',\n    'rpad': 'c'\n};\n\nvar str = pad( 'b', 11, opts );\n// returns 'aaaaabccccc'\n```\n\nWhen both `lpad` and `rpad` are specified and `len-str.length` is **odd**, left and right padding cannot equally split the available padding space. By default, right padding receives the extra character (i.e., the input `string` is left-centered).\n\n```javascript\nvar opts = {\n    'lpad': 'a',\n    'rpad': 'c'\n};\n\nvar str = pad( 'b', 10, opts );\n// returns 'aaaabccccc'\n```\n\nTo center right, set the `centerRight` option.\n\n```javascript\nvar opts = {\n    'lpad': 'a',\n    'rpad': 'c',\n    'centerRight': true\n};\n\nvar str = pad( 'b', 10, opts );\n// returns 'aaaaabcccc'\n```\n\n\u003c/section\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- /.usage --\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"notes\"\u003e\n\n## Notes\n\n-   In contrast to [lpad][@stdlib/string/left-pad] and [rpad][@stdlib/string/right-pad], any padding which does not evenly divide available space is trimmed such that the returned `string` length is **always** `len`.\n\n    ```javascript\n    var opts = {\n        'lpad': 'boop',\n        'rpad': 'woot'\n    };\n    var str = pad( 'beep', 10, opts );\n    // returns 'boobeepwoo'\n    ```\n\n-   Similarly, if `len \u003c str.length`, the input `string` is trimmed.\n\n    ```javascript\n    // Pad right, trim right:\n    var str = pad( 'beep', 2 );\n    // returns 'be'\n\n    // Pad left, trim left:\n    str = pad( 'beep', 2, {\n        'lpad': 'b'\n    });\n    // returns 'ep'\n\n    // Pad both, trim both:\n    str = pad( 'beep', 2, {\n        'lpad': '@',\n        'rpad': '!'\n    });\n    // returns 'ee'\n\n    // Pad both, trim both starting from left:\n    str = pad( 'abcdef', 3, {\n        'lpad': '@',\n        'rpad': '!'\n    });\n    // returns 'cde'\n\n    // Pad both, trim both starting from right:\n    str = pad( 'abcdef', 3, {\n        'lpad': '@',\n        'rpad': '!',\n        'centerRight': true\n    });\n    // returns 'bcd'\n    ```\n\n\u003c/section\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- /.notes --\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"examples\"\u003e\n\n## Examples\n\n\u003c!-- eslint no-undef: \"error\" --\u003e\n\n```javascript\nvar round = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-round' );\nvar randu = require( '@stdlib/random-base-randu' );\nvar pad = require( '@stdlib/string-pad' );\n\nvar str = 'boop';\nvar out;\nvar len;\nvar i;\n\nfor ( i = 0; i \u003c 100; i++ ) {\n    len = round( randu()*10.0 ) + str.length;\n    out = pad( str, len, {\n        'lpad': 'beep',\n        'rpad': 'p'\n    });\n    console.log( '%s. %d. %d.', out, len, out.length );\n}\n```\n\n\u003c/section\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- /.examples --\u003e\n\n* * *\n\n\u003csection class=\"cli\"\u003e\n\n## CLI\n\n\u003csection class=\"installation\"\u003e\n\n## Installation\n\nTo use as a general utility, install the CLI package globally\n\n```bash\nnpm install -g @stdlib/string-pad-cli\n```\n\n\u003c/section\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- CLI usage documentation. --\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"usage\"\u003e\n\n### Usage\n\n```text\nUsage: padstr [options] [\u003cstring\u003e] --len \u003clength\u003e\n\nOptions:\n\n  -h,    --help                Print this message.\n  -V,    --version             Print the package version.\n         --len length          String length.\n         --lpad str            String used to left pad.
