+//
+// The `str_format` library is a typesafe replacement for the family of
+// `printf()` std::string formatting routines within the `<cstdio>` standard library
+// header. Like the `printf` family, the `str_format` uses a "format string" to
+// perform argument substitutions based on types.
+//
+// Example:
+//
+//   std::string s = absl::StrFormat("%s %s You have $%d!", "Hello", name, dollars);
+//
+// The library consists of the following basic utilities:
+//
+//   * `absl::StrFormat()`, a type-safe replacement for `std::sprintf()`, to
+//     write a format std::string to a `string` value.
+//   * `absl::StrAppendFormat()` to append a format std::string to a `string`
+//   * `absl::StreamFormat()` to more efficiently write a format std::string to a
+//     stream, such as`std::cout`.
+//   * `absl::PrintF()`, `absl::FPrintF()` and `absl::SNPrintF()` as
+//     replacements for `std::printf()`, `std::fprintf()` and `std::snprintf()`.
+//
+//     Note: a version of `std::sprintf()` is not supported as it is
+//     generally unsafe due to buffer overflows.
+//
+// Additionally, you can provide a format std::string (and its associated arguments)
+// using one of the following abstractions:
+//
+//   * A `FormatSpec` class template fully encapsulates a format std::string and its
+//     type arguments and is usually provided to `str_format` functions as a
+//     variadic argument of type `FormatSpec<Arg...>`. The `FormatSpec<Args...>`
+//     template is evaluated at compile-time, providing type safety.
+//   * A `ParsedFormat` instance, which encapsulates a specific, pre-compiled
+//     format std::string for a specific set of type(s), and which can be passed
+//     between API boundaries. (The `FormatSpec` type should not be used
+//     directly.)
+//
+// The `str_format` library provides the ability to output its format strings to
+// arbitrary sink types:
+//
+//   * A generic `Format()` function to write outputs to arbitrary sink types,
+//     which must implement a `RawSinkFormat` interface. (See
+//     `str_format_sink.h` for more information.)
+//
+//   * A `FormatUntyped()` function that is similar to `Format()` except it is
+//     loosely typed. `FormatUntyped()` is not a template and does not perform
+//     any compile-time checking of the format std::string; instead, it returns a
+//     boolean from a runtime check.
+//
+// In addition, the `str_format` library provides extension points for
+// augmenting formatting to new types. These extensions are fully documented
+// within the `str_format_extension.h` header file.

+//
+// This class provides a way to safely wrap `StrFormat()` captures of `%n`

+// This wrapper is designed to allow safe usage of `%n` within `StrFormat(); in
+// the `printf()` family of functions, `%n` is not safe to use, as the `int *`
+// buffer can be used to capture arbitrary data.
+//
+// Example:

+// FormatSpec
+//
+// The `FormatSpec` type defines the makeup of a format std::string within the
+// `str_format` library. You should not need to use or manipulate this type
+// directly. A `FormatSpec` is a variadic class template that is evaluated at
+// compile-time, according to the format std::string and arguments that are passed
+// to it.
+//
+// For a `FormatSpec` to be valid at compile-time, it must be provided as
+// either:
+//
+// * A `constexpr` literal or `absl::string_view`, which is how it most often
+//   used.
+// * A `ParsedFormat` instantiation, which ensures the format std::string is
+//   valid before use. (See below.)
+//
+// Example:
+//
+//   // Provided as a std::string literal.
+//   absl::StrFormat("Welcome to %s, Number %d!", "The Village", 6);
+//
+//   // Provided as a constexpr absl::string_view.
+//   constexpr absl::string_view formatString = "Welcome to %s, Number %d!";
+//   absl::StrFormat(formatString, "The Village", 6);
+//
+//   // Provided as a pre-compiled ParsedFormat object.
+//   // Note that this example is useful only for illustration purposes.
+//   absl::ParsedFormat<'s', 'd'> formatString("Welcome to %s, Number %d!");
+//   absl::StrFormat(formatString, "TheVillage", 6);
+//
+// A format std::string generally follows the POSIX syntax as used within the POSIX
+// `printf` specification.
+//
+// (See http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/printf.html.)
+//
+// In specific, the `FormatSpec` supports the following type specifiers:
+//   * `c` for characters
+//   * `s` for strings
+//   * `d` or `i` for integers
+//   * `o` for unsigned integer conversions into octal
+//   * `x` or `X` for unsigned integer conversions into hex
+//   * `u` for unsigned integers
+//   * `f` or `F` for floating point values into decimal notation
+//   * `e` or `E` for floating point values into exponential notation
+//   * `a` or `A` for floating point values into hex exponential notation
+//   * `g` or `G` for floating point values into decimal or exponential
+//     notation based on their precision
+//   * `p` for pointer address values
+//   * `n` for the special case of writing out the number of characters
+//     written to this point. The resulting value must be captured within an
+//     `absl::FormatCountCapture` type.
+//
+// NOTE: `o`, `x\X` and `u` will convert signed values to their unsigned
+// counterpart before formatting.
+//
+// Examples:
+//     "%c", 'a'                -> "a"
+//     "%c", 32                 -> " "
+//     "%s", "C"                -> "C"
+//     "%s", std::string("C++") -> "C++"
+//     "%d", -10                -> "-10"
+//     "%o", 10                 -> "12"
+//     "%x", 16                 -> "10"
+//     "%f", 123456789          -> "123456789.000000"
+//     "%e", .01                -> "1.00000e-2"
+//     "%a", -3.0               -> "-0x1.8p+1"
+//     "%g", .01                -> "1e-2"
+//     "%p", *int               -> "0x7ffdeb6ad2a4"
+//
+//     int n = 0;
+//     std::string s = absl::StrFormat(
+//         "%s%d%n", "hello", 123, absl::FormatCountCapture(&n));
+//     EXPECT_EQ(8, n);
+//
+// The `FormatSpec` intrinsically supports all of these fundamental C++ types:
+//
+// *   Characters: `char`, `signed char`, `unsigned char`
+// *   Integers: `int`, `short`, `unsigned short`, `unsigned`, `long`,
+//         `unsigned long`, `long long`, `unsigned long long`
+// *   Floating-point: `float`, `double`, `long double`
+//
+// However, in the `str_format` library, a format conversion specifies a broader
+// C++ conceptual category instead of an exact type. For example, `%s` binds to
+// any std::string-like argument, so `std::string`, `absl::string_view`, and
+// `const char*` are all accepted. Likewise, `%d` accepts any integer-like
+// argument, etc.
