Hi @passalaqua
I've made a couple of changes in https://github.com/mendix/docs/pull/11058/changes/305c9c93ef7478afc35369af33350c0d75d683c1..c69e85379dc8f88fe5dc98fa1a4fa222e8aab018 and have a couple of questions.

What happens if the trim character is the only character of the string? Do you get NULL or a zero-length string?
LTRIM(String, 'D') DDDDD

| Removes leading characters from a `string`. If no `character` is specified for trimming, space is used. |

Does the language of the app make any difference. For example, if the string is Arabic, LTRIM will still trim from the left (rather than the leading characters on the right).
