Its a numpy style docstring. PyCharm can be configured to auto generate them. I guess I just add the types to be thorough.

Ideally I want to generate api documentation via a tool. A long time ago I wrote a script to parse the AST and generate markdown from the docstrings and function information, but it was mediocre and I haven't wanted to use sphinx because its too heavy and doesn't seem to produce ideal markdown output.

numpy seems to sometimes use type hints in the docstring, other times not: https://numpydoc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/format.html#parame...
