Formatting Strings Given Place Holders












0















I have to replace certain placeholders with variables from a list, however I am unsure about how to reformat the placeholders.



warning = 'I don't recognize the name {0}. Did you mean {1}?'


The above line of code is what I need to reformat. Any help would be appreciated.

          This is a default Python formatting string, it can be used with format.



          >>> warning = 'I don't recognize the name {0}. Did you mean {1}?'
          >>> warning.format("Meliodus123", "format")
          "I don't recognize the name Meliodus123. Did you mean format?"


          The number in {0} represent the argument position passed to format.
