From SA-MP Wiki
Printf
Outputs a formatted string on the console (the server window, not the in-game chat).
(const format[], {Float,_}:...)
| format[] | The format string |
| {Float,_}:... | Indefinite number of arguments of any tag |
This function does not return a specific value, it's best to simply ignore it.
Format Strings
| Placeholder | Meaning |
|---|---|
| %b | Inserts a number at this position in binary radix |
| %c | Inserts a single character. |
| %d | Inserts an integer (whole) number |
| %f | Inserts a floating point number. |
| %i | Inserts an integer. |
| %s | Inserts a string. |
| %x | Inserts a number in hexadecimal notation. |
| %% | Inserts the literal '%' |
The values for the placeholders follow in the exact same order as parameters in the call.
You may optionally put a number between the '%' and the letter of the placeholder code. This number indicates the field width; if the size of the parameter to print at the position of the placeholder is smaller than the field width, the field is expanded with spaces.
new number = 42; printf("The number is %d.",number); //-> The number is 42. new string[]= "simple message"; printf("This is a %s containing the number %d.", string, number); //-> This is a simple message containing the number 42. new character = 64; printf("I'm %c home",character); //-> I'm @ home
