The <VERB>mprintf</VERB>, <VERB>mfprintf</VERB>, and <VERB>msprintf</VERB> functions are interface for C-coded version of <VERB>printf</VERB>, <VERB>fprintf</VERB> and

<VERB>sprintf</VERB> functions.

The <VERB>mprintf</VERB> function

writes formatted operands to the standard Scilab output

(i.e the Scilab window). The argument operands are formatted under control

of the format operand.

The <VERB>mfprintf</VERB> function writes formatted operands to the file

specified by the file desciptor

<VERB>fd</VERB>. The argument operands are formatted under control

of the format operand.

The <VERB>msprintf</VERB>

writes formatted operands in its returned value (a Scilab string).

The argument operands are formatted under control

of the format operand. Note that, in this case, the escape

sequences (<VERB>"\n, \t,.."</VERB>) are treated as a normal sequence of

characters.

All these functions may be used to output column vectors of numbers

and string vectors without an explicit loop on the elements. In that

case these functions iterates on the rows. The shortest vector gives

the number of time the format has to be iterated.

An homogeneous sequence of identical type parameters can be

replaced by a matrix
