Your attempt at destruction bounced off the thick armor of my superior argument!

Here's your comment from the other thread:

"The way I see it is their charters are different, one is not better or worse than the other."

You can say exactly the same thing about substr and substring - their charters are different, one works by index and one by length! The question is: which one is which? Why is it print that adds spaces instead of write?

Why is print not to printf what write is to writef?


It is just too similar.

BTW ruby and php have print functions. Neither output spaces...
