# Grammar for Python, version 4

# Changes compared to version 3:
#	Removed 'dir' statement.
#	Function call argument is a testlist instead of exprlist.

# Changes compared to version 2:
#	The syntax of Boolean operations is changed to use more
#	conventional priorities: or < and < not.

# Changes compared to version 1:
#	modules and scripts are unified;
#	'quit' is gone (use ^D);
#	empty_stmt is gone, replaced by explicit NEWLINE where appropriate;
#	'import' and 'def' aren't special any more;
#	added 'from' NAME option on import clause, and '*' to import all;
#	added class definition.

# Start symbols for the grammar:
#	single_input is a single interactive statement;
#	file_input is a module or sequence of commands read from an input file;
#	expr_input is the input for the input() function;
#	eval_input is the input for the eval() function.

# NB: compound_stmt in single_input is followed by extra NEWLINE!
