Remarks

This method uses the composite formatting feature of .NET to convert the value of an object to its text representation and embed that representation in a string. The resulting string is written to the output stream.

The format parameter consists of zero or more runs of text intermixed with zero or more indexed placeholders, called format items, that correspond to an object in the parameter list of this method. The formatting process replaces each format item with the text representation of the value of the corresponding object.

The syntax of a format item is {index[,alignment][:formatString]}, which specifies a mandatory index, the optional length and alignment of the formatted text, and an optional string of format specifier characters that govern how the value of the corresponding object is formatted.

.NET provides extensive formatting support, which is described in greater detail in the following formatting topics.

For more information about the line terminator, see the Remarks section of the WriteLine method that takes no parameters.
