<h2 class="chapter">14 Variable Argument Lists</h2>
<p>The <code>printf</code> family of functions is defined to accept a variable
number of arguments, rather than a fixed argument list.  You can define
your own functions with a variable argument list, by using macro
definitions from either <samp>stdarg.h</samp> (for compatibility with ANSI C)
or from <samp>varargs.h</samp> (for compatibility with a popular convention
prior to ANSI C).
