String method format:

Last updated at 7:26 pm UTC on 14 July 2022

People used to C-style languages will find the #format: message useful.

This provides printf() like functionality.

Text also implements this.

Example.1

'I want {1} apples' format: #(3).

=> 'I want 3 apples'

The arguments must be supplied as a Collection, Here I supplied an array.

Taken from the String format: method code.

'\{ \} \\ foo {1} bar {2}' format: {12. 'string'}.
