The vsprintf() function in PHP is an inbuilt function and used to display array values as a formatted string. The array elements will be inserted at the percent (%) signs in the main string. Display array values as a formatted string according to its format and accepts an array argument in place of variable number of arguments. The function returns formatted string. while vprintf() outputs a formatted string
Syntax:
vsprintf (format, arr_arguments)
Parameters Used : This Function takes Two parameter which are described below-
-
format: It has Required parameter. It Specifies how string formatted to be variables. Possible format values as below:
- %% – Returns a percent sign
- %b – Binary number
- %d – Signed decimal number (negative, zero or positive)
- %u – Unsigned decimal number (equal to or greater than zero)
- %x – Hexadecimal number (lowercase letters)
- %X – Hexadecimal number (uppercase letters)
- %f – Floating-point number (local settings aware)
- %F – Floating-point number (not local settings aware)
- %o – Octal number
- %c – The character according to the ASCII value
- %s – String
- %e – Scientific notation using a lowercase (e.g. 1.2e+2)
- %g – shorter of %e and %f
- %G – shorter of %E and %f
- %E – Scientific notation using a uppercase (e.g. 1.2E+2)
- arr_arguments: An array arguments inserted at the % signs formatted string.
Additional format:
- – -> Left-justifies for variable value .
- [0-9] -> maximum string length for number.
- [0-9] -> minimum string width for variable value.
- + -> Used for both[+ or-] (By default its negative number).
Program 1: String space specified program.

Program 2: Drive floating program %f and %F in vsprintf() function in PHP.
<?php // %f and %F floating number in // vsprintf function in php $value1 = 789495321;
$value2 = 8080907021;
$value3 = 334422190;
echo "\n%f (local) Floating: " ;
// for %f Floating-point number // for local settings aware $txt = vsprintf( "%f %f %f" , array (
$value1 ,
$value2 ,
$value3
)); echo $txt ;
echo "\n%F (Not local) Floating: " ;
// for %F Floating-point number // for local settings aware $result = vsprintf( "%F %F %F " , array (
$value1 ,
$value2 ,
$value3
)); echo $result ;
?> |
%f (local) Floating: 789495321.000000 8080907021.000000 334422190.000000 %F (Not local) Floating: 789495321.000000 8080907021.000000 334422190.000000
Program 3: Implement %d, %u, %e and %E in vsprintf() function.
<?php // vsprintf function in php // used %d, %u, %e, %E $value1 = 7894;
$value2 = 9070;
$value3 = 3344;
echo "%d Signed decimal number : " ;
// %d Signed decimal number // where (-, + or zero) $txt = vsprintf( "%d %d %d" , array (
$value1 ,
$value2 ,
$value3
)); echo $txt ;
echo "\n%u UnSigned decimal number : " ;
// %d UnSigned decimal number // where (0<=zero) $tt = vsprintf( "%u %u %u" , array (
$value1 ,
$value2 ,
$value3
)); echo $tt ;
echo "\n%e Scientific notation : " ;
// Scientific notation for lowercase $result = vsprintf( "%e %e %e " , array (
$value1 ,
$value2 ,
$value3

echo "\n%E Scientific notation : " ;
// Scientific notation for uppercase $result = vsprintf( "%E %E %E " , array (
$value1 ,
$value2 ,
$value3
)); echo $result ;
?> |

// Returns [%] sign echo "% ->Returns [%] sign: " ;
$txt = vsprintf( "%% %%" , array (
$value1 ,
$value2

// Returns [%X] Hexadecimal number[Uppercase] echo "\n%X ->Hexadecimal number Uc : " ;
$result = vsprintf( "%X %X" , array (
$value1 ,
$value2

Program 5:Implement %g %G and %c(ASCII) vsprintf() function in PHP.
<?php // vsprintf function in php $value1 = 75;
$value2 = 55;
$char = 97;
$char2 = 69;
// shorter of %e and %f echo "%g shorter of %e and %f: " ;
$txt = vsprintf( "%g %g" , array (
$value1 ,
$value2
)); echo $txt ;
// %G – shorter of %E and %f echo "\n%G shorter of %E and %f : " ;
$tt = vsprintf( "%G %G" , array (
$value1 ,
$value2
)); echo $tt ;
// ASCII value echo "\n%c ASCII value : " ;
$result = vsprintf( "%c %c " , array (
$char ,
$char2
)); echo $result ;
?> |
%g shorter of %e and %f: 75 55 %G shorter of %E and %f : 75 55 %c ASCII value : a E
