+(If you need to print <em>values</em> of type <code>T</code> as well as pointers to <code>T</code>,
+the receiver for <code>String</code> must be of value type; this example used a pointer because
+that's more efficient and idiomatic for struct types.
+See the section below on <a href="#pointers_vs_values">pointers vs. value receivers</a> for more information.)

Our <code>String()</code> method is able to call <code>Sprintf</code> because the
print routines are fully reentrant and can be used recursively.
We can even go one step further and pass a print routine's arguments directly to another such routine.
