Expressions in formatted string literals are treated like regular
Python expressions surrounded by parentheses, with a few exceptions.
-An empty expression is not allowed, and a :keyword:`lambda` expression
-must be surrounded by explicit parentheses. Replacement expressions
-can contain line breaks (e.g. in triple-quoted strings), but they
-cannot contain comments. Each expression is evaluated in the context

If a conversion is specified, the result of evaluating the expression
is converted before formatting. Conversion ``'!s'`` calls :func:`str` on
