Hey all, a beginner at C# here.
I'm writing a console application in C# where i handle a lot of numerical data, and try to present them in a coherent, nicely aligned form.
I'm using System.Console. WriteLine
I have 8 - 10 columns of data for each record, each item per record contains 1 to 10 digits.
The problem i have is that i can't figure out how to align things. '\t' obviously wouldn't work well, because if you're on a tab boundary, it will screw things up.
I figured out that i could use the format specifier {0:d10} but that pads zeroes in front of each number, this is close to what i want
is there a way to do blank space padding instead of zero padding like with {0:d10}?
thanks for any help
4  3940 
so i have to...
myvar.ToString( ).PadRight(10,' ') for each and every entry?
allright, i was hoping there was a nice format specifier, but i guess i have to bite the bullet.

You want them RIGHT padded? Odd.
Left padding is very easy to do: -
int dd = 4531;
-
string s=string.Format("{0,10}",dd);

Hello,
I am trying to open a window containing an image and I would like
the image to be flush against the window -- i.e. have no padding or
border. Can I make this happen with a single call to a window.open
function? I would prefer not to create a separate HTML page. So far
all I have is the basic
var cwin = window.open('images/KJV-THANKS.gif',
'Thanks', 'width=243,height=420,');
cwin.focus();

I am having a problem where an extra gap (whitespace, padding) appears
in a table cell where I don't want it. The data fed in the table is
via dynamic HTML, so the amount in the middle cell may vary. When the
data in the middle table cell is little and that cell's height is
small, an unwanted gap appears in the first table cell. I would prefer
to have all additional blank space at the bottom of the table (last

Hi there.
I'm coding an encryption / decryption program.
At this very moment, I think I should be pretty close from the end,
but there's something blocking me on my way.
There's a "Padding is invalid and cannot be removed" error raised when
closing the cryptostream (or FlushFinalBlock-ing it).
For what I have read, Padding errors are due to an incorrect padding :
PKCS7 is recommended.

I can write a regular expression that will only match strings that are
NOT the word apple:
^(.*|a.*|ap.*|app.*|apple.+)$
But is there a neater way, and how would I do it to match strings that
are NOT the word apple OR banana? Then what would be needed to match
only strings that do not CONTAIN the word "apple" or "banana" or
"cherry"?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
