[issue10873] String formatting example invalid

[Ashwin Purohit]

New submission from Ashwin Purohit :

Your example on page http://docs.python.org/tutorial/inputoutput.html is 
outdated and won't work in Python 2.7:

Basic usage of the str.format() method looks like this:

>>> print 'We are the {} who say "{}!"'.format('knights', 'Ni')
We are the knights who say "Ni!"


Now, all brackets have to have a numeric or keyword argument.

Works as advertised for me. Unless more information is added, it looks like
an invalid issue.
