     Check if the object is an iterator.
 
     This is intended for generators, not list-like objects.
+    This method checks whether the passed object is an iterator. It
+    returns `True` if the object is an iterator, and `False` otherwise.
 
     Parameters
     ----------
     obj : The object to check
+        The object to check for iterator type.
 
     Returns
     -------
     is_iter : bool
         Whether `obj` is an iterator.
+        `True` if the object is of iterator type, otherwise `False`.
