-The :mod:`string` module contains a number of useful constants and classes, as
-well as some deprecated legacy functions that are also available as methods on
-strings. In addition, Python's built-in string classes support the sequence type
-methods described in the :ref:`typesseq` section, and also the string-specific
-methods described in the :ref:`string-methods` section. To output formatted
-strings, see the :ref:`string-formatting` section. Also, see the :mod:`re`
-module for string functions based on regular expressions.
