"""Extra symbol documents

Guidelines
----------

To add extra doc to the operator `XXX`, write a class `XXXDoc`, deriving
from the base class `SymbolDoc`, and put the extra doc as the docstring
of `XXXDoc`.

The document added here should be Python-specific. Documents that are useful
for all language bindings should be added to the C++ side where the operator
is defined / registered.

The code snippet in the docstring will be run using `doctest`. During running,
the environment will have access to

- all the global names in this file (e.g. `SymbolDoc`)
- all the operators (e.g. `FullyConnected`)
- the name `test_utils` for `mx.test_utils` (e.g. `test_utils.reldiff`)
- the name `mx` (e.g. `mx.nd.zeros`)
- the name `np`

The following documents are recommended:

- *Examples*: simple and short code snippet showing how to use this operator.
  It should show typical calling examples and behaviors (e.g. maps an input
  of what shape to an output of what shape).
