        # The Ast module tries to emulate a super-simple Abstract Syntax Tree structure
        # including method for accessing ast nodes.
        #
        # == Usage
        #
        # Include the Ast module and provide a <tt>parse</tt> instance method.
        # <tt>parse</tt> should returns a Hash representing the AST.
        #
        #   def parse
        #     Scanner.new.parse
        #   end
        #   # => { "created_on" => "2009-12-12", ... }
        #
        # Now you can access the AST using the <tt>node</tt> method.
        #
        #   node "created_on"
        #   # => "2009-12-12"
        #
        #   node? "created_on"
        #   # => true
        #
        #   node? "created_at"
        #   # => false
        #
