Example-1 :

AS RightTrimmedString;

| geeksforgeeks        | RightTrimmedString |
+----------------------+--------------------+
| geeksforgeeks        | geeksforgeeks      |
+----------------------+--------------------+

Example-2 :

Removing all the trailing spaces of a given string using RTRIM Function.

SELECT 'MySQL' AS String, RTRIM ('MySQL') 
AS Tstring;

Output :

+----------------------+---------+
| String               | Tstring |
+----------------------+---------+
| MySQL                | MySQL   |
+----------------------+---------+

Example-3 :

RTRIM Function can also be used to remove all the trailing spaces of column data. To demonstrate create a table named Student.

CREATE TABLE Student
(
  Student_id INT AUTO_INCREMENT,  
  Student_name VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
  Student_Class VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY(Student_id )

);

Inserting some data to the Student table :

INSERT INTO Student
(Student_name, Student_Class )
VALUES
  ('Ananya Majumdar     ', 'IX'),
  ('Anushka Samanta    ', 'X' ),
  ('Aniket Sharma   ', 'XI' ),
  ('Anik Das      ', 'X'  ),
  ('Riya Jain   ', 'IX' ),
  ('Tapan Samanta    ', 'X' ),
  ('Deepak Sharma    ', 'X'  ),
  ('Ankana Jana    ', 'XII'),
  ('Shreya Ghosh    ', 'X') ;

So, the Student Table is as follows.

mysql> select * from Student;

Output :

+------------+----------------------+---------------+
| Student_id | Student_name         | Student_Class |
+------------+----------------------+---------------+
|          1 | Ananya Majumdar      | IX            |
|          2 | Anushka Samanta      | X             |
|          3 | Aniket Sharma        | XI            |
|          4 | Anik Das             | X             |
|          5 | Riya Jain            | IX            |
|          6 | Tapan Samanta        | X             |
|          7 | Deepak Sharma        | X             |
|          8 | Ankana Jana          | XII           |
|          9 | Shreya Ghosh         | X             |
+------------+----------------------+---------------+

Now, we are going to remove all trailing spaces from the Student_name column.

  SELECT  
  Student_id,  Student_name,
  RTRIM( Student_name) AS  TrimmedSname 
  FROM Student ;

Output :

+------------+----------------------+-----------------+
| Student_id | Student_name         | TrimmedSname    |
+------------+----------------------+-----------------+
|          1 | Ananya Majumdar      | Ananya Majumdar |
|          2 | Anushka Samanta      | Anushka Samanta |
|          3 | Aniket Sharma        | Aniket Sharma   |
|          4 | Anik Das             | Anik Das        |
|          5 | Riya Jain            | Riya Jain       |
|          6 | Tapan Samanta        | Tapan Samanta   |
|          7 | Deepak Sharma        | Deepak Sharma   |
|          8 | Ankana Jana          | Ankana Jana     |
|          9 | Shreya Ghosh         | Shreya Ghosh    |
