+.. opcode:: FORMAT_VALUE (flags)
+
+ Used for implementing formatted literal strings (f-strings). Pops
+ an optional *fmt_spec* from the stack, then a required *value*.
+ *flags* is interpreted as follows:
+
+ * ``(flags & 0x03) == 0x00``: *value* is formatted as-is.
+ * ``(flags & 0x03) == 0x01``: call :func:`str` on *value* before
+ formatting it.
+ * ``(flags & 0x03) == 0x02``: call :func:`repr` on *value* before
+ formatting it.
+ * ``(flags & 0x03) == 0x03``: call :func:`ascii` on *value* before
+ formatting it.
+ * ``(flags & 0x04) == 0x04``: pop *fmt_spec* from the stack and use
+ it, else use an empty *fmt_spec*.
+
+ Formatting is performed using :c:func:`PyObject_Format`. The
+ result is pushed on the stack.
