Description: *Latest release 20191120*:
        named_row_tuple: support None in a column name, as from Excel unfilled heading row entries
        
        Facilities for mappings and objects associated with mappings.
        
        In particular `named_column_tuple(column_names)`,
        a function returning a factory
        for namedtuples subclasses derived from the supplied column names,
        and `named_column_tuples(rows)`,
        a function returning a namedtuple factory and an iterable of instances
        containing the row data.
        These are used by the `csv_import` and `xl_import` functions
        from `cs.csvutils`.
        
        ## Class `AttributableList`
        
        MRO: `builtins.list`  
        An `AttributableList` maps unimplemented attributes
        onto the list members and returns you a new `AttributableList`
        with the results, ready for a further dereference.
        
        Example:
        
            >>> class C(object):
            ...   def __init__(self, i):
            ...     self.i = i
            >>> Cs = [ C(1), C(2), C(3) ]
            >>> AL = AttributableList( Cs )
            >>> print(AL.i)
            [1, 2, 3]
        
        ### Method `AttributableList.__init__(self, initlist=None, strict=False)`
        
        Initialise the list.
        
        The optional parameter `initlist` initialises the list
        as for a normal list.
        
        The optional parameter `strict`, if true, causes list elements
        lacking the attribute to raise an AttributeError. If false,
        list elements without the attribute are omitted from the results.
        
        ## Class `FallbackDict`
        
        MRO: `collections.defaultdict`, `builtins.dict`  
        A dictlike object that inherits from another dictlike object;
        this is a convenience subclass of `defaultdict`.
        
        ### Method `FallbackDict.__init__(self, otherdict)`
        
        
        
        ## Class `MappingChain`
        
        A mapping interface to a sequence of mappings.
        
        It does not support `__setitem__` at present;
        that is expected to be managed via the backing mappings.
        
        ### Method `MappingChain.__init__(self, mappings=None, get_mappings=None)`
        
        Initialise the MappingChain.
        
        Parameters:
        * `mappings`: initial sequence of mappings, default None.
        * `get_mappings`: callable to obtain the initial sequence of
        
        Exactly one of `mappings` or `get_mappings` must be provided.
        
        ## Class `MethodicalList`
        
        MRO: `AttributableList`, `builtins.list`  
        A MethodicalList subclasses a list and maps unimplemented attributes
        into a callable which calls the corresponding method on each list members
        and returns you a new `MethodicalList` with the results, ready for a
        further dereference.
        
        Example:
        
            >>> n = 1
            >>> class C(object):
            ...   def __init__(self):
            ...     global n
            ...     self.n = n
            ...     n += 1
            ...   def x(self):
            ...     return self.n
            ...
            >>> Cs=[ C(), C(), C() ]
            >>> ML = MethodicalList( Cs )
            >>> print(ML.x())
            [1, 2, 3]
        
        ### Method `MethodicalList.__init__(self, initlist=None, strict=False)`
        
        Initialise the list.
        
        The optional parameter `initlist` initialises the list
        as for a normal list.
        
        The optional parameter `strict`, if true, causes list elements
        lacking the attribute to raise an AttributeError. If false,
        list elements without the attribute are omitted from the results.
        
        ## Function `named_column_tuples(rows, class_name=None, column_names=None, computed=None, preprocess=None, mixin=None)`
        
        Process an iterable of data rows, usually with the first row being
        column names.
        Return a generated namedtuple factory and an iterable
        of instances of the namedtuples for each row.
        
        Parameters:
        * `rows`: an iterable of rows, each an iterable of data values.
        * `class_name`: option class name for the namedtuple class
        * `column_names`: optional iterable of column names used as the basis for
          the namedtuple. If this is not provided then the first row from
          `rows` is taken to be the column names.
        * `computed`: optional mapping of str to functions of `self`
        * `preprocess`: optional callable to modify CSV rows before
          they are converted into the namedtuple.  It receives a context
          object an the data row.
          It should return the row (possibly modified), or None to drop the
          row.
        * `mixin`: an optional mixin class for the generated namedtuple subclass
          to provide extra methods or properties
        
        The context object passed to `preprocess` has the following attributes:
        * `.cls`: attribute with the generated namedtuple subclass;
          this is useful for obtaining things like the column names
          or column indices;
          this is `None` when preprocessing the header row, if any
        * `.index`: attribute with the row's enumeration, which counts from 0
        * `.previous`: the previously accepted row's namedtuple,
          or `None` if there is no previous row
        
        Rows may be flat iterables in the same order as the column
        names or mappings keyed on the column names.
        
        If the column names contain empty strings they are dropped
        and the corresponding data row entries are also dropped. This
        is very common with spreadsheet exports with unused padding
        columns.
        
        Typical human readable column headings, also common in
        speadsheet exports, are lowercased and have runs of whitespace
        or punctuation turned into single underscores; trailing
        underscores then get dropped.
        
        Basic example:
        
            >>> data1 = [
            ...   ('a', 'b', 'c'),
            ...   (1, 11, "one"),
            ...   (2, 22, "two"),
            ... ]
            >>> cls, rows = named_column_tuples(data1)
            >>> print(list(rows))
            [NamedRow(a=1, b=11, c='one'), NamedRow(a=2, b=22, c='two')]
        
        Human readable column headings:
        
            >>> data1 = [
            ...   ('Index', 'Value Found', 'Descriptive Text'),
            ...   (1, 11, "one"),
            ...   (2, 22, "two"),
            ... ]
            >>> cls, rows = named_column_tuples(data1)
            >>> print(list(rows))
            [NamedRow(index=1, value_found=11, descriptive_text='one'), NamedRow(index=2, value_found=22, descriptive_text='two')]
        
        Rows which are mappings:
        
            >>> data1 = [
            ...   ('a', 'b', 'c'),
            ...   (1, 11, "one"),
            ...   {'a': 2, 'c': "two", 'b': 22},
            ... ]
            >>> cls, rows = named_column_tuples(data1)
            >>> print(list(rows))
            [NamedRow(a=1, b=11, c='one'), NamedRow(a=2, b=22, c='two')]
        
        CSV export with unused padding columns:
        
            >>> data1 = [
            ...   ('a', 'b', 'c', '', ''),
            ...   (1, 11, "one"),
            ...   {'a': 2, 'c': "two", 'b': 22},
            ...   [3, 11, "three", '', 'dropped'],
            ... ]
            >>> cls, rows = named_column_tuples(data1, 'CSV_Row')
            >>> print(list(rows))
            [CSV_Row(a=1, b=11, c='one'), CSV_Row(a=2, b=22, c='two'), CSV_Row(a=3, b=11, c='three')]
        
        A mixin class providing a `test1` method and a `test2` property:
        
            >>> class Mixin(object):
            ...   def test1(self):
            ...     return "test1"
            ...   @property
            ...   def test2(self):
            ...     return "test2"
            >>> data1 = [
            ...   ('a', 'b', 'c'),
            ...   (1, 11, "one"),
            ...   {'a': 2, 'c': "two", 'b': 22},
            ... ]
            >>> cls, rows = named_column_tuples(data1, mixin=Mixin)
            >>> rows = list(rows)
            >>> rows[0].test1()
            'test1'
            >>> rows[0].test2
            'test2'
        
        ## Function `named_row_tuple(*column_names, **kw)`
        
        Return a namedtuple subclass factory derived from `column_names`.
        
        Parameters:
        * `column_names`: an iterable of `str`, such as the heading columns
          of a CSV export
        * `class_name`: optional keyword parameter specifying the class name
        * `computed`: optional keyword parameter providing a mapping
          of `str` to functions of `self`; these strings are available
          via `__getitem__`
        * `mixin`: an optional mixin class for the generated namedtuple subclass
          to provide extra methods or properties
        
        The tuple's attributes are computed by converting all runs
        of nonalphanumerics
        (as defined by the `re` module's "\W" sequence)
        to an underscore, lowercasing and then stripping
        leading and trailing underscores.
        
        In addition to the normal numeric indices, the tuple may
        also be indexed by the attribute names or the column names.
        
        The new class has the following additional attributes:
        * `attributes_`: the attribute names of each tuple in order
        * `names_`: the originating name strings
        * `name_attributes_`: the computed attribute names corresponding to the
          `names`; there may be empty strings in this list
        * `attr_of_`: a mapping of column name to attribute name
        * `name_of_`: a mapping of attribute name to column name
        * `index_of_`: a mapping of column names and attributes their tuple indices
        
        Examples:
        
            >>> T = named_row_tuple('Column 1', '', 'Column 3', ' Column 4', 'Column 5 ', '', '', class_name='Example')
            >>> T.attributes_
            ['column_1', 'column_3', 'column_4', 'column_5']
            >>> row = T('val1', 'dropped', 'val3', 4, 5, 6, 7)
            >>> row
            Example(column_1='val1', column_3='val3', column_4=4, column_5=5)
        
        ## Class `SeenSet`
        
        A set-like collection with optional backing store file.
        
        ## Class `SeqMapUC_Attrs`
        
        A wrapper for a mapping from keys
        (matching the regular expression `^[A-Z][A-Z_0-9]*$`)
        to tuples.
        
        Attributes matching such a key return the first element
        of the sequence (and requires the sequence to have exactly on element).
        An attribute `FOOs` or `FOOes`
        (ending in a literal 's' or 'es', a plural)
        returns the sequence (`FOO` must be a key of the mapping).
        
        ## Class `StackableValues`
        
        A collection of named stackable values with the latest value
        available as an attribute.
        
        Note that names conflicting with methods are not available
        as attributes and must be accessed via `__getitem__`.
        As a matter of practice, in addition to the mapping methods,
        avoid names which are verbs or which begin with an underscore.
        
        Example:
        
            >>> S = StackableValues()
            >>> print(S)
            StackableValues()
            >>> S.push('x', 1)
            >>> print(S)
            StackableValues(x=1)
            >>> print(S.x)
            1
            >>> S.push('x', 2)
            1
            >>> print(S.x)
            2
            >>> S.x = 3
            >>> print(S.x)
            3
            >>> S.pop('x')
            3
            >>> print(S.x)
            1
            >>> with S.stack(x=4):
            ...   print(S.x)
            ...
            4
            >>> print(S.x)
            1
            >>> S.update(x=5)
            {'x': 1}
        
        ## Class `UC_Sequence`
        
        MRO: `builtins.list`  
        A tuple-of-nodes on which `.ATTRs` indirection can be done,
        yielding another tuple-of-nodes or tuple-of-values.
        
        ### Method `UC_Sequence.__init__(self, Ns)`
        
        Initialise from an iterable sequence.
