Text Processing Services

---

The modules described in this chapter provide a wide range of string manipulation operations and other text processing services.

The :mod:codecs module described under :ref:binaryservices is also highly relevant to text processing. In addition, see the documentation for Python's built-in string type in :ref:textseq.
