+  """A one line docstring looks like this and ends in a period."""
 
-  New paragraph after newline that explains in more detail any general
-  information about the function, class or method. After this, if defining

   When writing the docstring for a class, an extra line should be placed
   after the closing quotations. For more in-depth explanations for these

   :param foo: the foo parameter
   :param bar: the bar parameter
   :returns: description of the return value
