In the docs for the array module:
https://docs.python.org/dev/library/array.html#module-array
Note 1 in the table of type codes says that the 'u' type is deprecated and will go in Python 4.0.

Since the array.fromunicode() and array.tounicode() methods depend on type code 'u' shouldn't they also be marked as deprecated?

If people use the 'u' type code maybe it would be helpful to provide an example of how to store unicode chars in an array.array? (Presumably they'd use type code 'L' and use ord() and chr()?)
