13 Type PyStringObject represents a character string.  An extra zero byte is
14 reserved at the end to ensure it is zero-terminated, but a size is
15 present so strings with null bytes in them can be represented.  This
16 is an immutable object type.
17 
18 There are functions to create new string objects, to test
19 an object for string-ness, and to get the
20 string value.  The latter function returns a null pointer
21 if the object is not of the proper type.
22 There is a variant that takes an explicit size as well as a
23 variant that assumes a zero-terminated string.  Note that none of the
24 functions should be applied to nil objects.

30    comparison.  This is generally restricted to strings that "look like"
