Idiom #302 String interpolation

Given the integer x = 8, assign to the string s the value "Our sun has 8 planets", where the number 8 was evaluated from x.

  write (unit=s,fmt='(*(G0))') "Our sun has ",x," planets."

s has to be long enough.
#include <stdio.h>
char s[32] = "";
sprintf(s, "Our sun has %i planets", x);
