 A format string consists of zero or more "format units."  A format unit
-describes one Python object; it is usually a single character or a parenthesized
-sequence of format units.  With a few exceptions, a format unit that is not a
-parenthesized sequence normally corresponds to a single address argument to

-variable(s) whose address should be passed.

 ``s`` (string or Unicode object) [const char \*]
