  The Python documentation is a bit, "informal".

  A "more formal specification" can be found in, maybe (if I found
  the right place), the function definition "_PyBytes_DecodeEscape"
  in the source file "Objects\bytesobject.c":

|switch (*s++) {
|/* XXX This assumes ASCII! */
|case '\n': break;
|case '\\': *p++ = '\\'; break;
|case '\'': *p++ = '\''; break;
|case '\"': *p++ = '\"'; break;
. . .

  . In 2015, Jakub Przywoski started to write a new specification:

|Python is such a well-designed, clean and enjoyable to code in 
|language so it sure deserves to have a decent syntax reference.

  . It seems, however, that he was not yet able to finish his project
  or to update it to newer versions of Python. It would be a full-time
  project I think!

  Effectively, Python is what CPython does.
