Talk:String interpolation (included)
Task clarification
I would think the intent would be to show that strings can be manipulated within the language. At least one example shows what appears to be print formatting only. I would think that that wouldn't meet the intent. So a printf would not pass but an sprintf would.

- It isn't going to get any better. Another (less widespread) problem is documentation. Fixing it, will just have to look ugly for a while with all the attention tags. The problem is the Wikipedia article shows printf for variable interpolation which is referenced. Choices:
- Let it ride (and maybe make it clear it's okay)
- Clarify and flag
- Clarify and make it optional to show that the interpolated string can be retained in the program for further manipulation
- Thoughts?
