Examples

The following query executes an array of independent LTrim operations and returns the results in an array. The result array position matches the execution array position. The individual operations are:

  1. The string " Fire" is processed, resulting in "Fire" which becomes the first item in the result array.

  2. The string "\t\n Fire" is processed, resulting in "Fire", which becomes the second item in the result array.

    Value result = await client.Query(
        Arr(
            LTrim(" Fire"),
            LTrim("\t\n\r    Fire")
        )
    );

    Console.WriteLine(result);
}
