"""Package for parsing and compiling Python source code There are several functions defined at the top level that are imported from modules contained in the package. parse(buf, mode="exec") -> AST Converts a string containing Python source code to an abstract syntax tree (AST). The AST is defined in compiler.ast. parseFile(path) -> AST The same as parse(open(path)) walk(ast, visitor, verbose=None) Does a pre-order walk over the ast using the visitor instance. See compiler.visitor for details. compile(source, filename, mode, flags=None, dont_inherit=None) Returns a code object. A replacement for the builtin compile() function. compileFile(filename) Generates a .pyc file by compiling filename.
