 Because expressions may begin with a left brace ('{'), there is a
 problem when parsing such expressions. For example::
 
-  >>> f'{{k:v for k, v in [(1, 2), (3, 4)}}'
-  '{k:v for k, v in [(1, 2), (3, 4)}'
+  >>> f'{{k:v for k, v in [(1, 2), (3, 4)]}}'
+  '{k:v for k, v in [(1, 2), (3, 4)]}'
 
 In this case, the doubled left braces and doubled right braces are
 interpreted as single braces, and the string becomes just a normal
 string literal. There is no expression evaluation being performed.
 
-To account for this, whitespace characters at the beginning of an
-expression are skipped::
