No, but you can compose a similar function very easily.

def sprintf(format, *objects):
  return format % tuple(objects)

Since strings are immutable it's not convenient to provide a
pass-out parameter as in C. If you want to check for errors
you'll have to catch the exceptions, rather than inspect the
return value as you can in C.
