Add: lesson on the different ways to document code #89

Description

@lwasser

https://www.pyopensci.org/python-package-guide/documentation/write-user-documentation/document-your-code-api-docstrings.html

We have the above page in our guidebook but a more robust page on the different types of documentation and how to add it would be useful. This would include

  • reference and links to how expressive naming contributes to documentation

  • How and when to add docstrings

  • How to add docstring examples

  • How to call help / see how the docstrings appear to a user

Notes on how docstrings become critical when adding API docs (as a small section at the end).
