STRIPL function

Syntax: STRIPL(string-argument)

Discussion: The STRIPL function strips only leading blanks from a string-argument.

The string-argument may be a string constant, a single-element string variable, a string array element, a string expression, or a string function.

See STRIP and STRIPR.

Example: A$=STRIPL(B$)

In the above example, the data contained in string variable B$ is stripped of leading blanks; the result is moved to the string variable A$.
