Python string formatting: reference one argument multiple times

Question

If I have a string like:

"{0} {1} {1}" % ("foo", "bar") 

and I want:

"foo bar bar" 

What do the replacement tokens have to be? (I know that my example above is incorrect; I'm just trying to express my goal.)

Answer 1

"{0} {1} {1}".format("foo", "bar")
