Discussion

The format(_:) instance method generates a string from the provided sequence. Once you create a style, you can use it to format similar sequences multiple times. For example:

let percentStyle = ListFormatStyle<IntegerFormatStyle.Percent, [Int]>(memberStyle: .percent)
percentStyle.format([92, 98]) // 92% and 98%
percentStyle.format([67, 72, 99]) // 67%, 72%, and 99%
