int vprintf(const char *format, va_list arg);
Equivalent to printf with variable argument list replaced by arg, which must have been initialised by the va_start macro (and may have been used in calls to va_arg).
is used to generate a string from a format string and then print to standard output stdout.
vprintf can understood as a combination of puts and vsprintf.
