"#### It's important to format output to make it easier to read and understand. You can use Python's **f-strings** for formatting data. The result from formatting is another string.\n",
"#### If there is a **format specifier**, it is separated from the value by a colon. The specifier can have an optional field width. For floating-point and decimal values only, the optional width can be followed a decimal point followed by the desired number of decimal places. The last part of the specifier is an optional **presentation type** such as `f` for float, `d` for integer, `c` for character, and `s` for string."
