-Idris lacks a dedicated facility for variadics, but we can call functions in
-type signatures, Idris allows us to manipulate types as first class values, and
-we can use the runtime values of previous arguments to the function we are
-defining as arguments to our type-level function.
 
-To get our variadic `printf` function, we can parse our format string into a
-data structure, then pass that data structure into a type-level function that
-calculates the rest of the type signature of our `printf` function based on its
-contents.
 
 ## Parsing a Format String
 
-First, we need a data structure to describe our format string. We define the
-`Format` data type, with constructors for each of the format specifiers we will
-be supporting, as well as a constructor to hold literal components.
-
-```idris
-data Format : Type where
-  ||| A slot that should be filled in with a number
-  Number : (next : Format) -> Format
-  ||| A slot that should be filled  in with a number, padded to a certian number
-  ||| of digits
-  PaddedNumber : (digits : Nat) -> (next : Format) -> Format
-  ||| A slot that should be filled in with a string
-  Str : (next : Format) -> Format
-  ||| A literal component of the format string that should not be interpolated
-  Literal : (literal : String) -> (next : Format) -> Format
-  ||| The end of the format string
-  End : Format
-```
-
-We'll need to be able to parse numbers for our `PaddedNumber` constructor, so
-we'll write a little helper function to handle that component of the parsing.
-Simply keep pulling off characters, converting them to integers by shifting
-their ordinal values.
-
-> [!WARNING]
-> On Idris 2's chez scheme backend, these are unicode ordinals, where the digit
-> characters are in numerical order, but the values are backend dependent and
-> this code is not guaranteed to work properly on other backends.
-
-```idris
-parseNumber : (xs : List Char) -> (acc : Nat) -> (Nat, List Char)
-parseNumber [] acc = (acc, [])
-parseNumber (x :: xs) acc = 
-  if isDigit x
-    then let value = cast $ (ord x) - (ord '0')
-    in parseNumber xs (acc * 10 + value)
-    else (acc, x :: xs)
-```
-
-We'll also want another one to scoop up a literal into a `List Char`, continuing
-until we hit the end of the string or the next `%`. This is optional, we could
-have each literal consist of an individual char, but we will go ahead and group
-them together.
-
-```idris
-parseLiteral : (xs : List Char) -> (List Char, List Char)
-parseLiteral [] = ([], [])
-parseLiteral ('%' :: xs) = ([], '%' :: xs)
-parseLiteral (x :: xs) = 
-  let (literal, rest) = parseLiteral xs
-  in (x :: literal, rest)
-```
-
-Parse our format string into our `Format` data structure. The specifics of the
-parsing here aren't really material to the main point of this article, but we
-use a basic pattern matching approach, calling into our helper functions as
-appropriate. 
-
-```idris
-parseFormat : (xs : List Char) -> Maybe Format
-parseFormat [] = Just End
--- A `%` has to come before a specifier
-parseFormat ('%' :: []) = Nothing
-parseFormat ('%' :: (x :: xs)) = 
-  if isDigit x
-    -- Invoke parseNumber to get our padding specifier
-    then let (digits, rest) = parseNumber (x :: xs) 0
-    in case rest of
-      -- A padding specifier has to come before something
-      [] => Nothing
-      ('d' :: ys) => do
-        rest <- parseFormat ys
-        Just $ PaddedNumber digits rest
-      -- A padding specifier is only valid before a number specifier
-      (y :: ys) => Nothing
-    -- Parse as an unpadded specifier
-    else case x of
-      'd' => do
-        rest <- parseFormat xs
-        Just $ Number rest
-      's' => do
-        rest <- parseFormat xs
-        Just $ Str rest
-      -- Any other character here is an invalid specifier
-      _ => Nothing
-parseFormat (x :: xs) = 
-  let (literal, rest) = parseLiteral (x :: xs)
-  in do
-    rest <- parseFormat rest
-    Just $ Literal (pack literal) rest
-```
-
 ## Calculating a Type From a Format String
 
-```idris 
-PrintfType' : Format -> Type
-PrintfType' (Number next) =
-  (num : Nat) -> PrintfType' next
-PrintfType' (PaddedNumber digits next) =
-  (num : Nat) -> PrintfType' next
-PrintfType' (Str next) = 
-  (str : String) -> PrintfType' next
-PrintfType' (Literal literal next) = 
-  PrintfType' next
-PrintfType' End = String
-
-PrintfType : Maybe Format -> Type
-PrintfType Nothing = Void -> String
-PrintfType (Just x) = PrintfType' x
-```
-
 ## printf
-
-### With the Format Structure
-
-```idris hide
-left_pad : (len : Nat) -> (pad : Char) -> (str : String) -> String
-left_pad len pad str = 
-  let cs = unpack str
-  in if length cs < len
-    then pack $ replicate (len `minus` length cs) pad ++ cs
-    else str
-```
-
-```idris
-printfFmt : (fmt : Maybe Format) -> (acc : String) -> PrintfType fmt
-printfFmt Nothing acc = 
-  \void => absurd void
-printfFmt (Just x) acc = printfFmt' x acc
-  where 
-    printfFmt' : (fmt : Format) -> (acc : String) -> PrintfType' fmt
-    printfFmt' (Number next) acc = 
-      \i => printfFmt' next (acc ++ show i)
-    printfFmt' (PaddedNumber digits next) acc = 
-      \i => printfFmt' next (acc ++ left_pad digits '0' (show i))
-    printfFmt' (Str next) acc =
-      \str => printfFmt' next (acc ++ str)
-    printfFmt' (Literal literal next) acc = 
-      printfFmt' next (acc ++ literal)
-    printfFmt' End acc = acc
-```
-
-### With a Format String
-
-```idris
-printf : (fmt : String) -> PrintfType (parseFormat (unpack fmt))
-printf fmt = printfFmt _ ""
-```
-
-We can call `printf` as expected, with the number of and types of the arguments
-being determined by the provided format string:
-
-```idris hide
--- @@test printf hello world
-helloWorld : IO Bool
-helloWorld = do
-  pure $
-```
-
-```idris
-  printf "%s %s%s %3d %d" "Hello" "world" "!" 1 23 == "Hello world! 001 23"
-```
-
-It will even fail to compile if you attempt to provide arguments to an invalid
-format string, which we can demonstrate by trying to apply a padding modifier to
-a string specifier:
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> `failing` blocks have an additional feature, they will trigger a compiler
-> error if their contents _do_ compile successfully.
-
-```idris
-failing
-  printf "Hello %s %3s" "world" "!"
-```
