Earlier, I mentioned the idea of replacing overly complicated
"printf"s with a "print" and some "f" function calls, as:
{
$a=1828;
$b=45;
print f("pi=%8.6f, ", 355/113),
f("e=2.7$a$a$b%d$b\n", $b*2);
}
Now, "f" is really just shorthand for "sprintf", but creating "f"
was a bit trickier than I'd have thought. FWIW, here's something
that works:
sub f { sprintf(shift(@_), @_); }
-r
