and of course I've already updated it:
<?
/* printf_arrays(string format[, mixed args[, mixed...]]) */
function printf_arrays($format) {
$args = func_get_args();
array_shift($args); // get rid of format
$longest = 0;
foreach($args as $arg) {
if(is_array($arg) && count($arg) > $longest)
$longest = count($arg);
}
for($i=0; $i<$longest; $i++) {
$pfargs = Array();
foreach($args as $arr) $pfargs[] = is_array($arr) ? ( isset($arr[$i]) ? $arr[$i] : '' )
: $arr;
vprintf($format, $pfargs);
}
}
?>
allows you to mix and match:
printf_arrays('%s is %s', $names, 'cool');
bob is cool
ted is cool
sue is cool
