[issue10873] String formatting example invalid

2011-01-09 Thread Ashwin Purohit

New submission from Ashwin Purohit puro...@gmail.com:

Your example on page http://docs.python.org/tutorial/inputoutput.html is 
outdated and won't work in Python 2.7:

Basic usage of the str.format() method looks like this:

 print 'We are the {} who say {}!'.format('knights', 'Ni')
We are the knights who say Ni!


Now, all brackets have to have a numeric or keyword argument.

Works as advertised for me. Unless more information is added, it looks like an

This feature was added in 2.7 (and 3.1, I think). If the numeric indices are 
not specified, they take the args in order.
