New submission from James Luscher:
Doc for 3.4: at 6.1.3.1. Format Specification Mini-Language
indicates that:
"The precision is a decimal number indicating how many digits should be
displayed after the decimal point for a floating point value"
Yet I find that I get this behavior:
Python 3.4.3 (default, Mar 26 2015, 22:03:40)
[GCC 4.9.2] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> '{:08.3}'.format(12.34)
'000012.3'
When what I am expecting is: '0012.340'
