Python String rjust() Method

Python rjust() method returns the right-justified string and fill the remaining spaces with specified fillchar.

The syntax of the method is: str.rjust(width[, fillchar])

String rjust() Parameters

The rjust() method takes two parameters:

• width: width of the string provided. If the width is shorter than or equal to the string length, the original string would be restored.
• fillchar (Optional) : This is an optional parameter. These characters must be padded along the string.

Return value from String rjust()

The rjust() function returns a new string and substitutes the given fill_char to the original string’s left.

Below is the python program to demonstrate the rjust() function:

str = "The Best Learning Resource for Online Education";
print (str.rjust(50, '#'))

When we run above the program, the outcome is as follows:

###The Best Learning Resource for Online Education

Right justify string of minimum width

# example string
str = 'Online Education'
width = 25
# print right justified string
print(str.rjust(width))

When we run above the program, the outcome is as follows:
