[New-bugs-announce] [issue35831] Format Spec example says limited to 3.1+ but works in 2.7

[Mitchell L Model]

New submission from Mitchell L Model <mlm at users.sourceforge.net>:

https://docs.python.org/3/library/string.html#format-examples includes this line:

    '{}, {}, {}'.format('a', 'b', 'c')  # 3.1+ only

This does in fact work in 2.7. I don't see anything special about this -- seems an entirely straightforward format.
