sprintf()

Format text values into a string. This function works like fprintf() except that the output is formatted into a string rather than a file. The same format specifications are valid for the format string. Returns a formatted string.

See also: fprintf().

Syntax:

sprintf(fmt, args...);

where

fmt is output format string.

args is the values to be included in the formatted output, as required by the format string.

Example:

Creates and stores the following string in the variable s : The value of x is 5.5 .

decl x=5.5;
decl s;
s=sprintf ("The value of %s is %f", "x", x);
