Summary: difficult to find string interpolation

Initial Comment:
I tried to look up the possibilities how to formulate
expressions like
'Hello %s\n' % name

After a long search I found out that this is "string
interpolation". But searching for the word
'interpolation' resulted only in pages about
interpolation errors.

Finally I found the page:
Python library reference, 2.1.5.2 String Formatting
Operations.
This is what I wanted to see. This page does not
contain the word "interpolation".

I think this part of the documentation should be made
easier to find.
