Return value.__format__(format_spec)
Return type(value).__format__(value, format_spec)
format_spec defaults to the empty string.
See the Format Specification Mini-Language section of help('FORMATTING') for
details.
Many built-in types implement format_spec according to the
Format Specification Mini-language. See help('FORMATTING').
If type(value) does not supply a method named __format__
and format_spec is empty, then str(value) is returned.
See also help('SPECIALMETHODS').
