   NSString *name = @"Bas"; [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Hello, %@", name]; [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.2f",

   9.0234]; [NSString stringWithFormat: @"Hello %@, how are you doing this %@? %@", @"Bas", @"evening", @"Great!" ]; @basthomas, Copenhagen Cocoa, 06-02-2020 5

   let name = "Bas" "Hello, \(name)" String(format: "%.2f", 9.0234) //

   "Hello \(name), how are you doing this \(timeOfDay)?" @basthomas, Copenhagen Cocoa, 06-02-2020 7
