str.format_map()
str.format_map() is a Python method in the String Methods category. Like format() but uses a mapping for placeholders. The syntax is str.format_map(mapping). Parameters: mapping — dict-like object. Returns: Formatted string. A typical example: "Hello {name}!".format_map({"name": "World"}) # "Hello World!". A close sibling is str.upper(), which returns a copy of the string with all characters converted to uppercase. A close sibling is str.lower(), which returns a copy of the string with all characters converted to lowercase. A close sibling is str.capitalize(), which returns a copy with the first character capitalized and the rest lowercased. A close sibling is str.title(), which returns a titlecased version where each word starts with uppercase.
