Congratulations, and welcome.

Text comes through as text. Don't rely on fonts, colours, or other
non-text markup to survive.
If you want to draw attention to some part of code, it is much better to
reduce the example so it is minimal enough to show only what is
relevant, while still exhibiting the behaviour you want to discuss.

Every value in Python is an object, with methods according to its type.
A text string has many methods
<URL:https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#string-methods>.
The ‘format’ method of the ‘str’ type is used to generate formatted
output from a template string. See
<URL:https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str.format> and
<URL:https://docs.python.org/3/library/string.html#formatstrings>.
