-:mod:`symbol` --- Constants used with Python parse trees
-========================================================
-
-.. module:: symbol
-   :synopsis: Constants representing internal nodes of the parse tree.
-
-.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake@acm.org>
-
-**Source code:** :source:`Lib/symbol.py`
-
---------------
-
-This module provides constants which represent the numeric values of internal
-nodes of the parse tree.  Unlike most Python constants, these use lower-case
-names.  Refer to the file :file:`Grammar/Grammar` in the Python distribution for
-the definitions of the names in the context of the language grammar.  The
-specific numeric values which the names map to may change between Python
-versions.
-
-.. warning::
-
-   The symbol module is deprecated and will be removed in future versions of
-   Python.
-
-This module also provides one additional data object:
-
-
-.. data:: sym_name
-
-   Dictionary mapping the numeric values of the constants defined in this module
-   back to name strings, allowing more human-readable representation of parse trees
-   to be generated.
