class Tree(list):
    """
    A hierarchical structure.

    Each C{Tree} represents a single hierarchical grouping of
    leaves and subtrees.  For example, each constituent in a syntax
    tree is represented by a single C{Tree}.

    A tree's children are encoded as a C{list} of leaves and subtrees,
    where a X{leaf} is a basic (non-tree) value; and a X{subtree} is a
    nested C{Tree}.

    Any other properties that a C{Tree} defines are known as
    X{node properties}, and are used to add information about
    individual hierarchical groupings.  For example, syntax trees use a
    NODE property to label syntactic constituents with phrase tags,
    such as \"NP\" and\"VP\".

    Several C{Tree} methods use X{tree positions} to specify
    children or descendants of a tree.  Tree positions are defined as
    follows:

      - The tree position M{i} specifies a C{Tree}'s M{i}th child.
      - The tree position C{()} specifies the C{Tree} itself.
      - If C{M{p}} is the tree position of descendant M{d}, then
        C{M{p}+(M{i})} specifies the C{M{i}}th child of M{d}.
    
    I.e., every tree position is either a single index C{M{i}},
    specifying C{self[M{i}]}; or a sequence C{(M{i1}, M{i2}, ...,
    M{iN})}, specifying
    C{self[M{i1}][M{i2}]...[M{iN}]}.
