The f"..." string is pretty new. Only the hippest of the hip (>= Python 3.6) are using it at this point. I only recently started using "...".format() to ease some anticipated far-in-the-future switch to Python 3 for some of my work. It's grown on me a bit. As an old C programmer, I've been pretty married to printf-style formatting. Skip -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
