bit stuffing
Explanation:
Also referred to as 'padding with 0s'
"In data transmission and telecommunication, bit stuffing (also known—uncommonly—as positive justification) is the insertion of non information bits into data. " (wiki)

The second link refers to the same principle, but uses a different type of input.

Correction: No second link, but I had misread O for 0 anyway. So whether 1 or 0, the input is still a string of bits. No "different type of input.

right-pad with spaces


Explanation:
Right-padding with spaces is a way to lengthen character strings so that they get to the same (set) length, so that they can be saved in a row and then accessed easily. By the way, left-padding stands for 先頭空白埋め.
