Unlike sprintf, vprintf does NOT returns the formatted string, but its length. When using vprintf,
it echoes the string. Beware.
$string = "Bla %s bli";
$formatted = sprintf($string, 'ble');
// $formatted is 'Bla ble bli'.
$formatted = vprintf($string, array('ble'));
// this echoes 'Bla ble bli'
// $formatted is 11.
