      1  """This is the docstring for the example.py module.  Modules names should
      2  have short, all-lowercase names.  The module name may have underscores if
      3  this improves readability.

      5  Every module should have a docstring at the very top of the file.  The
      6  module's docstring may extend over multiple lines.  If your docstring does
      7  extend over multiple lines, the closing three quotation marks must be on
      8  a line by itself, preferably preceeded by a blank line.
