For more information on format specifiers, an excellent reference book is C: A Reference Manual, by Harbison and Steele. Now in its fifth edition, this has been a standard since it first appeared. While not about Python, it does contain important material related to Python, as several ideas, such as the format specifiers, were lifted directly from C.
