# The Element type is a flexible container object, designed to
# store hierarchical data structures in memory. The type can be
# described as a cross between a list and a dictionary.
#
# Each element has a number of properties associated with it:
#
# - a tag. This is a string identifying what kind of data
# this element represents (the element type, in other words).
# - a number of attributes, stored in a Python dictionary.
# - a text string.
# - an optional tail string.
# - a number of child elements, stored in a Python sequence
#
#
# To create an element instance, use the {@link #Element} or {@link
# #SubElement} factory functions.
#
# The {@link #ElementTree} class can be used to wrap an element
# structure, and convert it from and to XML.
