Raymond Hettinger added the comment:

It makes sense to drop zfill() and ljust().  If there is any mention of 
string.Template, it could be limited to mentioning why you would want to use it 
(i.e. is a great format to expose to non-programmer end-users) and include a 
reference to the string.Template docs.

A.M. Kuchling added the comment:

Oh, I didn't finish my thought on open questions: should we just drop the 
discussion of .ljust(), .zfill(), or should it be there so users are aware of 
it?  Similarly, is it still worth mentioning string.Template?

[issue28626] Tutorial: rearrange discussion of output formatting to encourage f-strings

[A.M. Kuchling]

New submission from A.M. Kuchling:

The 'output formatting' section of the tutorial talks a lot about manual 
formatting with things like .rjust() and .zfill(), with only a passing 
reference to 3.6's new f-strings.

The attached patch doesn't drop all of the old material, but it does rearrange 
the topics into a more modern order: f-strings first, featuring the discussion 
of formatting specifiers; then calling .format(); finally manual formatting 
with .ljust().

Open question:
