format(value, format_spec='')

Returns test

value	??
format_spec	??

REMARKS

* No prefix required - Core
* Convert a value to a "formatted" representation, as controlled by format_spec. The interpretation of format_spec will depend on the type of the value argument; however, there is a standard formatting syntax that is used by most built-in types: Format Specification Mini-Language.
* The default format_spec is an empty string which usually gives the same effect as calling str(value).
* A call to format(value, format_spec) is translated to type(value).__format__(value, format_spec) which bypasses the instance dictionary when searching for the value's __format__() method. A TypeError exception is raised if the method search reaches object and the format_spec is non-empty, or if either the format_spec or the return value are not strings.
