[Greg Kuhn]

New submission from Greg Kuhn <gregorykuhn at gmail.com>:

Hi All, 
Is the below a bug? Shouldn't the interpreter be complaining about a curly brace?

$ python
Python 3.8.5 (tags/v3.8.5:580fbb0, Jul 20 2020, 15:43:08) [MSC v.1926 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> num = 10
>>> f'[{num]'
  File "<stdin>", line 1
SyntaxError: f-string: unmatched ']'
>>>
