The "See also" reference in the documentation for the token and symbol modules is no longer accurate. The "second example" mentioned was apparently removed in Python 2.7.

This leaves no explanation for how to use the symbol module.

I don't think this "See also" belongs in the token module at all. (It's in Python 2.5 and 2.6 as well.)

http://docs.python.org/release/2.7.1/library/symbol.html

See also:
Module parser
    The second example for the parser module shows how to use the symbol module.

IIUC, the parser and token module somehow can be used together.  If so, the interlinks are okay, provided the text is revised to remove mention of the “second example”.  If I’m wrong, let’s remove the link.

Hi Davi, thanks for your report! I've removed the reference from symbol to parser, given this last module doesn't show anymore how to user symbol, and it's encouraging to use ast module instead.
