3 There are several functions defined at the top level that are imported
4 from modules contained in the package.
6 parse(buf) -> AST
7 Converts a string containing Python source code to an abstract
8 syntax tree (AST). The AST is defined in compiler.ast.
10 parseFile(path) -> AST
11 The same as parse(open(path))
13 walk(ast, visitor, verbose=None)
14 Does a pre-order walk over the ast using the visitor instance.
15 See compiler.visitor for details.
17 compile(filename)
18 Generates a .pyc file by compilining filename.
