<p>This function takes string <em class="parameter"><code>padVar</code></em> and
      pads it out in the direction <em class="parameter"><code>rightLeft</code></em> to
      the string-length <em class="parameter"><code>length</code></em>, using string
      <em class="parameter"><code>padChar</code></em> (a space character by default) as
