 49	// representation of the input value.  Conceptually:

 52	// Note that the first argument need not explicitly match the type, it must
 53	// merely be callable with it.

 55	// When processing an input value, if its type exists as a key in Formatter:
 56	//   1) If the value is nil, no stringification is performed.
 57	//      This allows overriding of PrintStringers and PrintTextMarshalers.
 58	//   2) The value will be called with the input as its only argument.

 62	//   fmt.Sprint        (function) func Sprint(...interface{}) string
