// Print, Println, and Printf lay out their arguments differently. In this example

// so it cannot be used to produce the same output as Print in this case;
// its output has extra spaces.
// Also, Println always adds a newline to the output.
fmt.Println("The vector (", a, b, ") has length", h, ".")
// Printf provides complete control but is more complex to use.
// It does not add a newline to the output, so we add one explicitly
// at the end of the format specifier string.

// These examples demonstrate the basics of printing using a format string. Printf,
// Sprintf, and Fprintf all take a format string that specifies how to format the
// subsequent arguments. For example, %d (we call that a 'verb') says to print the
// corresponding argument, which must be an integer (or something containing an
// integer, such as a slice of ints) in decimal. The verb %v ('v' for 'value')
// always formats the argument in its default form, just how Print or Println would
// show it. The special verb %T ('T' for 'Type') prints the type of the argument
// rather than its value. The examples are not exhaustive; see the package comment
// for all the details.

// A basic set of examples showing that %v is the default format, in this
// case decimal for integers, which can be explicitly requested with %d;
// the output is just what Println generates.

// Each of these prints "23" (without the quotes).
fmt.Println(integer)
fmt.Printf("%v\n", integer)
fmt.Printf("%d\n", integer)
// The special verb %T shows the type of an item rather than its value.
fmt.Printf("%T %T\n", integer, &integer)
// Result: int *int
// Println(x) is the same as Printf("%v\n", x) so we will use only Printf
// in the following examples. Each one demonstrates how to format values of
// a particular type, such as integers or strings. We start each format
// string with %v to show the default output and follow that with one or
// more custom formats.
// Booleans print as "true" or "false" with %v or %t.
truth := true
fmt.Printf("%v %t\n", truth, truth)
// Result: true true
// Integers print as decimals with %v and %d,

// Result: 42 42 2a 52 101010
// Floats have multiple formats: %v and %g print a compact representation,
// while %f prints a decimal point and %e uses exponential notation. The
// format %6.2f used here shows how to set the width and precision to
// control the appearance of a floating-point value. In this instance, 6 is
// the total width of the printed text for the value (note the extra spaces
// in the output) and 2 is the number of decimal places to show.

// Runes are integers but when printed with %c show the character with that
