Does anyone know what doing a "complete format" means?
See
http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#string-formatting-operations
The formatting codes have been borrowed from the C function
sprintf(), where l and h are length modifier for integers (%hi, %li,
...)
The Python docs (link above) say:
"A length modifier (h, l, or L) may be present, but is ignored as it
is not necessary for Python – so e.g. %ld is identical to %d."
