avoiding extra space when using CATQ

[Batman]

How can I remove the space before the "n" in the variable y1.

data x;
y='Provider Name ';
y1=catq('1T',y,'n');
put y= y1=;
run;

From the documentation of the CATQ function:

If you do not use the C, D, or H modifiers, CATQ uses a blank as a delimiter.

Are you trying to make a name literal.  There is a function for that.

45         data _null_;
46         y='Provider Name ';
47         y1=catq('1T',y,'n');
48         nl = nliteral(y);
49         put y= y1= nl=;
50         run;

y=Provider Name y1='Provider Name' n nl="Provider Name"N
