<p>This module provides constants which represent the numeric values of leaf nodes
of the parse tree (terminal tokens). Refer to the file <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Grammar/Tokens</span></code>
in the Python distribution for the definitions of the names in the context of
the language grammar. The specific numeric values which the names map to may
change between Python versions.</p>
<p>The module also provides a mapping from numeric codes to names and some
functions. The functions mirror definitions in the Python C header files.</p>
