i understand mirars example, but it barely hints at how it relates to yours,
It fits perfectly, since after:
n = sscanf("%d %d %s", x, y, z); I can do something like:
if (n > 2 && x > 100) foo(z); while in case of array_sscanf() I've to reassing array's values to variables - using array directly will degrade code readability - symbolic are better, and again - performance because of array allocations (and extra copying).
Case of default values also significant. To be short - sscanf() simplifies the code and damn convenient, comparing to other methods.
