64This module provides constants which represent the numeric values of
65internal nodes of the parse tree. Unlike most Python constants, these
66use lower-case names. Refer to the file <span class="file">Grammar/Grammar</span> in the
67Python distribution for the definitions of the names in the context of
68the language grammar. The specific numeric values which the names map
69to may change between Python versions.

71<P>
72This module also provides one additional data object:

74<P>
75<dl><dt><b><tt id='l2h-4959' xml:id='l2h-4959'>sym_name</tt></b></dt>
76<dd>
77 Dictionary mapping the numeric values of the constants defined in
78 this module back to name strings, allowing more human-readable
79 representation of parse trees to be generated.
