**Explanation:**
1. **Import `datetime`:** This line imports the `datetime` module, which provides classes for working with dates and times.
2. **Example `sdf` object:** This line creates an example `datetime` object representing the current date and time. You can replace this with your own `sdf` object.
3. **Format the `datetime` object:** This line uses the `strftime()` method to format the `datetime` object as a string.
* `%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%f`: This format string specifies the desired output format, including milliseconds.
* `[:23]`: This slice notation truncates the string to 23 characters, effectively limiting the milliseconds to 3 decimal places.
4. **Print the formatted string:** This line prints the formatted string.
**Example Output:**
This code will format the given `sdf` object to a string with the format "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.fff", where "fff" represents the milliseconds truncated to 3 decimal places.

2. **Example `sdf`:** This line creates an example `datetime` object representing the current date and time. You can replace this with your own `sdf` variable.
3. **Format using `strftime`:**
- `sdf.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%f")` formats the `sdf` object as a string with the specified format codes:
- `%Y`: Year with century as a decimal number
- `%m`: Month as a zero-padded decimal number
- `%d`: Day of the month as a zero-padded decimal number
- `%H`: Hour (24-hour clock) as a zero-padded decimal number
- `%M`: Minute as a zero-padded decimal number
- `%S`: Second as a zero-padded decimal number
- `.%f`: Microsecond as a decimal number, zero-padded on the left
- `[:23]` slices the resulting string to keep only the first 23 characters, effectively truncating the microseconds to 3 decimal places.
4. **Print the result:** This line prints the formatted string with 3 decimal places for seconds.
**Output (example):**
This code snippet will format your `sdf` datetime object to a string with the desired format, including 3 decimal places for seconds.

**Explanation:**
1. **Import datetime:** We import the `datetime` module to work with datetime objects.
2. **Example datetime object:** An example `sdf` datetime object is created with year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and microsecond components.
3. **Format using strftime():**
- We use the `strftime()` method to format the datetime object.
- `%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%f`: This format string represents year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and microseconds (up to 6 digits).
- `[:-3]`: We slice the formatted string to keep only the first 3 decimal digits of the seconds.
4. **Print the result:** The `formatted_sdf` variable now contains the datetime string formatted with 3 decimal places for seconds.
**Key points:**
- The `%f` format code within `strftime()` is used to represent microseconds.
- Slicing `[:-3]` removes the last three characters, effectively truncating the microseconds to milliseconds (3 decimal places).
Now you can use this approach to format any datetime object (`sdf`) to have 3 decimal digits for seconds.

**Explanation:**
1. **Import datetime:** We import the `datetime` module to work with datetime objects.
2. **Assume sdf is a datetime object:** The code assumes that `sdf` is already a datetime object. If it's a string, you'll need to parse it into a datetime object first using `strptime()`.
3. **Format using strftime():**
- `sdf.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%f")` formats the datetime object into a string with the specified format, including milliseconds using `%f`.
- `[:-3]` slices the string to remove the last 3 characters, effectively keeping only 3 decimal places for seconds.
4. **Print the result:** The formatted string is then printed to the console.
**Example Output:**
This code will print the current date and time with seconds formatted to 3 decimal places.
**Remember to replace `sdf` with your actual datetime object or string representation of the date and time.**
