The `url.format()` method returns a formatted URL string derived from
`urlObject`.

```js
url.format({
protocol: 'https',
hostname: 'example.com',
pathname: '/some/path',
query: {
page: 1,
format: 'json'
}
});

// => 'https://example.com/some/path?page=1&format=json'

Other places in the file use Prints or just show the output below. I personally think a "Prints" would be better than =>.

I did a search in the docs and found several instances of // => symbolizing a returned value. Also, this method doesn't actually print a value, it just returns it.

I would be open to just doing // https://.... That was another "convention" I found when looking at existing code examples in Node's docs.

In this case I only spoke about this specific document. And yes, // => is still used some times but it is not really common as far as I know.

So I personally would say using // 'https:... would be good.

```

If `urlObject` is not an object or a string, `url.format()` will throw a
[`TypeError`][].
