"""This module tests SyntaxErrors.
Here's an example of the sort of thing that is tested.
>>> def f(x):
... global x
Traceback (most recent call last):
SyntaxError: name 'x' is parameter and global
The tests are all raise SyntaxErrors. They were created by checking
each C call that raises SyntaxError. There are several modules that
raise these exceptions-- ast.c, compile.c, future.c, pythonrun.c, and
symtable.c.
The parser itself outlaws a lot of invalid syntax. None of these
errors are tested here at the moment. We should add some tests; since
there are infinitely many programs with invalid syntax, we would need
to be judicious in selecting some.
The compiler generates a synthetic module name for code executed by
doctest. Since all the code comes from the same module, a suffix like
[1] is appended to the module name, As a consequence, changing the
order of tests in this module means renumbering all the errors after
it. (Maybe we should enable the ellipsis option for these tests.)
In ast.c, syntax errors are raised by calling ast_error().

If the left-hand side of an assignment is a list or tuple, an illegal
expression inside that contain should still cause a syntax error.
This test just checks a couple of cases rather than enumerating all of
them.

There is one test for a break that is not in a loop. The compiler
uses a single data structure to keep track of try-finally and loops,
so we need to be sure that a break is actually inside a loop. If it
isn't, there should be a syntax error.
