Expand description

Format strings using C-style format specifiers, vectorized over arguments.

In R, sprintf(fmt, ...) is vectorized: if any argument is a vector of length > 1, the result is a character vector of the same length (the longest argument), with shorter arguments recycled.

@param fmt character scalar: format string with %d, %f, %s, etc. @param … values to substitute into the format string @return character vector containing the formatted results
