4. String Services

The modules described in this chapter provide a wide range of string manipulation operations. Here's an overview:

`string`	Common string operations.
`re`	Perl-style regular expression search and match operations.
`regex`	Regular expression search and match operations.
`regsub`	Substitution and splitting operations that use regular expressions.
`struct`	Interpret strings as packed binary data.
`fpformat`	General floating point formatting functions.
`StringIO`	Read and write strings as if they were files.
`cStringIO`	Faster version of `StringIO`, but not subclassable.
