The sixth episode of #PythonLiveLessons, a weekly live stream about Python code and more, hosted by Sebastiaan Mathôt. In this episode, we'll add documentation to our `markdown_code_exec` project. We'll learn about docstrings and numpydoc, and we'll see how we can use our own project to build a readme file that contains documentation directly from the source code!

In this video, the third of a three-part series about object-oriented programming in Python, I show how to extend an existing class through inheritance (or subclassing). This allows you to create new classes that inherit all functionality of existing classes while extending or changing this functionality. (For more Python tutorials, see https://python.cogsci.nl. For the Rapunzel IDE, see https://rapunzel.cogsci.nl/)")
