You do.

C:
printf("Number is: %d\n", somenumber);

...and be careful types match between format string and arguments 
passed, and particularly that you passed *enough* arguments

C++:
cout << "Number is: " << somenumber << "\n";

...and there is no duplicated information that could get out-of-sync 
(format and arguments).

It's just you can still use the C way if you want to.
