Actually that would be adding a HUGE overhead for a simple procedure. By 
using sprintf you have to do all the function call crap, plus put it 
through a bulky and slow function. You can just use:

*buf = 0;
or
*buf = '\0';

And you just use an instruction or two rather than a while function 
call/return.
