The vprintf Function
The vprintf function works similarly to printf, but accepts arguments as an array instead of a variable number of parameters. String formatting occurs according to the specified pattern.
Syntax
vprintf(string $format, array $args): int
Example
Basic usage with an array of arguments:
<?php
$format = 'Name: %s, Age: %d';
$args = ['Ivan', 25];
vprintf($format, $args);
?>
Code execution result:
"Name: Ivan, Age: 25"
Example
Using various format specifiers:
<?php
$format = 'Price: %.2f, Code: %04d';
$args = [19.99, 42];
vprintf($format, $args);
?>
Code execution result:
"Price: 19.99, Code: 0042"
Example
Usage with a variable number of arguments via call_user_func_array:
<?php
$format = '%s scored %d goals in %d matches';
$data = ['Player1', 12, 15];
call_user_func_array('vprintf', [$format, $data]);
?>
Code execution result:
"Player1 scored 12 goals in 15 matches"
