Thanks for taking the lead on this.
In this sentence:
+The new format syntax also supports new and different options, showed in the
+follow examples.
"showed" should be "shown".
I like to use an example showing attribute access on named types. Barry Warsaw
suggested using "self", which is a great tip. It's hard to come up with a
complete example, but something that ends up like:
"x is {self.x}, y is {self.y}".format(self=self)
I think it would be a good idea to show comma formatting (even with its
limitations), since there's not another easy way to do that in Python:
>>> '{:,}'.format(1234567890)
'1,234,567,890'
For datetime, something like:
>>> import datetime
>>> d = datetime.datetime(2010, 7, 4, 12, 15, 58)
>>> '{:%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S}'.format(d)
'2010-07-04 12:15:58'
