# Printf

`Printf.@printf` — Macro

    @printf([io::IOStream], "%Fmt", args...)

Print `args` using C `printf` style format specification string, with some caveats: `Inf` and `NaN` are printed consistently as `Inf` and `NaN` for flags `%a`, `%A`, `%e`, `%E`, `%f`, `%F`, `%g`, and `%G`. Furthermore, if a floating point number is equally close to the numeric values of two possible output strings, the output string further away from zero is chosen.

Optionally, an `IOStream` may be passed as the first argument to redirect output.

Examples

    julia> @printf("%f %F %f %F\n", Inf, Inf, NaN, NaN)
    Inf Inf NaN NaN

    julia> @printf "%.0f %.1f %f\n" 0.5 0.025 -0.0078125
    1 0.0 -0.007813
