| When I run this code: '{0:i}'.format(None) I get this error: ValueError: Unknown format code 'i' for object of type 'str' This seems misleading because None is of Type 'NoneType'. I was expecting the error to say something to the effect of: Unknown format code 'i' for object of type 'NoneType' | ||
