Is it possible to use POD(plain old documentation) with Python?

I was wondering if it is possible to use POD(plain old documentation) with Python? And how should I do it?

Answer

There does not appear to be a directly supported way to use POD inline in a Python file. However, Python modules (including the Python standard library) are documented using reStructuredText. This is usually done using Sphinx, which produces documentation from reStructuredText-formatted docstrings. Sphinx and rst were specifically designed to fill a similar niche to POD.
