The format() method formats strings by inserting values into placeholders. It takes arguments, formats them, and inserts them into a string where {} are located. List methods allow you to modify lists. Common list methods include append() to add elements, clear() to remove all elements, count() to count elements, and sort() to sort the list. Set methods allow you to modify sets. Common set methods include add() to add elements, discard() to remove elements, intersection() to get the intersection of sets, and symmetric_difference() to get the symmetric difference of sets. Dictionary methods allow you to modify dictionaries. Common dictionary methods include clear() to remove all elements, items() to get a list
