difference between %{count} and %<count>s in validation message

I am used to the approach below when displaying a validation message

class Person < ApplicationRecord
  validates :bio, length: { maximum: 1000,
    too_long: "%{count} characters is the maximum allowed" }
end

However, I just found out that below is also possible. But I could not find any documentation on %<>s format. And what is the use of s found at the end?

    too_long: "%<count>s characters is the maximum allowed" }

Can someone explain the difference between these syntaxes? Or provide a documentation link on %<>s

>Solution :

That s in %<...>s denotes "string". From the sprintf docs:

For more complex formatting, Ruby supports a reference by name. %<name>s style uses format style, but %{name} style doesn’t.

Example:

sprintf('%<count>s characters', count: '2,300')
=> "2,300 characters"
