String — the truncated string
This function removes any and all space characters from both the beginning and the end of the passed string. It returns the result as a new string, leaving the original string intact.
Because strip() is implemented as a function, it does not use dot syntax.
| local aString = " This string starts and ends with rogue spaces "; | |
| local newString = strip(aString); | |
| server.log(newString); | |
| // Displays "This string starts and ends with rogue spaces" |
