How to flush right but align left?

Question

I am writing an introduction, and I need to put my name at the end of it at the right side of the page, but it should be aligned left:

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem
I psum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an 
unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specime n
book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic
typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s w
ith the release of Letraset.

                                                                  Andriy D.
                                                                  Toronto, 2009

What is the best way to achieve this? Any tips appreciated!

Answer 1

One simple way to do this is with a tabular environment:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}

\lipsum[1]

\hfill
\begin{tabular}{@{}l@{}}
Andriy D.\\
Toronto, 2009
\end{tabular}

\end{document}

Answer 2

One way to do it in Plain TeX:

{
  \parindent=0em
  \setbox0=\hbox{Toronto, 2009}
  \hfill\vbox{\hsize=\wd0

  \box0\par}
}
