Hold on there. awk doesn't *require* parentheses for printf;
spaces will do just fine.
For more fun with awk, try the following:
awk 'BEGIN { printf "The correct spelling is %ardvark\n" }' < /dev/null
awk 'BEGIN { printf "This is your lucky number: %d\n", 123456789 }' < /dev/null
(May not work on all versions of awk)
"With awk, you can slice, serve, smash... you can do everything with awk!"
"awk is your friend!"
