VɪsʜᴀL , 'f' is a format specifier for float numbers, '3' means that the output shows 3 digits from decimal places. to get more familiar with output formating, you can read this tutorial: https://realpython.com/JUMP_LINK__&&__python__&&__JUMP_LINK-f-strings/

When dealing with floats The format ".3" means: there shell be displayed 3 digits at most The format ".3f" means: the number is to be shown in fixed point notation with a precision of 3 digits after the point P. S.: learn f-strings, they're much easier to read
