:attr:`end_lineno`, and :attr:`end_col_offset` attributes, including subclasses of
:attr:`end_lineno`, and :attr:`end_col_offset` attributes, including all subclasses of

:class:`ast.expr`, :class:`ast.stmt` and others (see
`Abstract Grammar <abstract-grammar_>`__). The :attr:`lineno` and
:attr:`end_lineno` are the first and last line numbers of source text span (1-indexed
so the first line is line 1) and the :attr:`col_offset` and :attr:`end_col_offset`
are the corresponding UTF-8 byte offsets of the first and last tokens that
generated the node. The UTF-8 offset is recorded because the parser uses
UTF-8 internally.
