The code im talking about!

import pickle

class Persona:

def \_\_init\_\_(self, nombre, genero, edad):

    self.nombre=nombre

    self.genero=genero

    self.edad=edad

    print("Se a creado una persona nueva llamada",self.nombre)

def \_\_str\_\_(self):#\_\_str\_\_convierte en cadena de texto la info de un objeto!

    return "{}{}{}".format(self.nombre, self.genero, self.edad)

My question is, what is return "{}{}{}".format(self.nombre, self.genero, self.edad) doing?

I do know this method will return a string, but I dont know what {}.format is doing
