reality it's simply an implementation detail for CPython. This point is now
clearly documented in both the docs for dis and the glossary.
Closes issue #7829. Thanks to Terry Reedy for some initial suggestions on
wording.

Add rational.Rational as an implementation of numbers.Rational with infinite
precision. This has been discussed at http://bugs.python.org/issue1682. It's
useful primarily for teaching, but it also demonstrates how to implement a
member of the numeric tower, including fallbacks for mixed-mode arithmetic.
I expect to write a couple more patches in this area:
* Rational.from_decimal()
* Rational.trim/approximate() (maybe with different names)
* Maybe remove the parentheses from Rational.__str__()
* Maybe rename one of the Rational classes
* Maybe make Rational('3/2') work.

The duplication is intentional -- this paragraph is in a section

As discussed in issue 1700288:
ctypes takes some liberties when creating python types: it modifies the types'

special methods. And this broke recent optimisations of method lookup.

Surprising behaviour of the "$" regexp: it matches the
end of the string, AND just before the newline at the end
of the string::
re.sub('$', '#', 'foo\n') == 'foo#\n#'
Python is consistent with Perl and the pcre library, so
we just document it.
Guido prefers "\Z" to match only the end of the string.
