#
# Example of the CDECL tool using pycparser. CDECL "explains" C type
# declarations in plain English.
#
# The AST generated by pycparser from the given declaration is traversed
# recursively to build the explanation. Note that the declaration must be a
# valid external declaration in C. All the types used in it must be defined with
# typedef, or parsing will fail. The definition can be arbitrary - pycparser
# doesn't really care what the type is defined to be, only that it's a type.
#
# For example:
#
# 'typedef int Node; const Node* (*ar)[10];'
# =>
# ar is a pointer to array[10] of pointer to const Node
