Syntax Tree (AST) generation and compilation stage, using the :mod:`ast`
module.
The :mod:`parser` module exports the names documented here also with "st"
replaced by "ast"; this is a legacy from the time when there was no other
AST and has nothing to do with the AST found in Python 2.5. This is also the
reason for the functions' keyword arguments being called *ast*, not *st*.
There are a few things to note about this module which are important to making
use of the data structures created. This is not a tutorial on editing the parse
trees for Python code, but some examples of using the :mod:`parser` module are

When *st* represents an ``'eval'`` form, this function returns true, otherwise
