 String Formatting
 -----------------
 
-Starting in Python 3.0, the built-in string class provides the ability to do
-complex variable substitutions and value formatting via the :func:`format`
-method described in :pep:`3101`.  The :class:`Formatter` class in the
-:mod:`string` module allows you to create and customize your own string
-formatting behaviors using the same implementation as the built-in
-:meth:`format` method.
