  **Example**::

  Formats a string. Returns a temporary formatter object that accepts
  arguments via operator ``<<``. *format* is a format string that contains
  literal text and replacement fields surrounded by braces ``{}``.
  The formatter object replaces the fields with formatted arguments
  and stores the output in a memory buffer. The content of the buffer can
  be converted to ``std::string`` with :cpp:func:`format::str()` or
  accessed as a C string with :cpp:func:`format::c_str()`.

  **Example**::

    std::string message = str(Format("The answer is {}") << 42);
