Description

sprintf write printf-style formatted output to a string variable, similarly to the C function sprintf(). sprintf runs at i-time only.

Syntax

Sdst sprintf Sfmt, xarg1[, xarg2[, ... ]]

Sdst sprintfk Sfmt, xarg1[, xarg2[, ... ]]

Initialization

Sfmt -- format string, has the same format as in printf() and other similar C functions, except length modifiers (l, ll, h, etc.) are not supported. The following conversion specifiers are allowed:

xarg1, xarg2, ... -- input arguments (max. 30) for format, should be i-rate for all conversion specifiers except %s, which requires a string argument. Integer formats like %d round the input values to the nearest integer.

Performance

Sdst -- output string variable

Example

Sname   sprintf "soundin-%04d.wav", ifileno
Smsg    sprintf "The file name is: '%s'", Sname
	puts Smsg, 1
asig	soundin Sname
