+    Create and fit data to a truncated normal distribution.
+
+    Methods
+    -------
+    fit
+        Use scipy's maximum likelihood estimation methods to estimate
+        the parameters of the data's distribution.
+    from_params
+        Create a new distribution instances from the ``namedtuple``
+        result of the :meth:`~fit` method.
+
+    Parameters
+    ----------
+    lower, upper : float
+        The lower and upper limits of the distribution that serve as its
+        shape parameters.
+    mu : float, optional (default = 0)
+        The expected value (mean) of the underlying normal distribution.
+        Acts as the location parameter of the distribution.
+    sigma : float, optional (default = 1)
+        The standard deviation of the underlying normal distribution.
+        Also acts as the scale parameter of distribution.
+
+    Examples
+    --------
+    >>> import numpy
+    >>> import paramnormal as pn
+    >>> numpy.random.seed(0)
+    >>> pn.truncated_normal(lower=-0.5, upper=0.5).rvs(size=3)
+    array([ 0.04687082,  0.20804061,  0.09879796])
+
+    >>> # you can also use greek letters
+    >>> numpy.random.seed(0)
+    >>> pn.truncated_normal(lower=-0.5, upper=2.5, σ=2).rvs(size=3)
+    array([ 0.8902748 ,  1.37377049,  1.04012565])
+
+    >>> # silly fake data
+    >>> numpy.random.seed(0)
+    >>> data = pn.truncated_normal(lower=-0.5, upper=2.5, mu=0, sigma=2).rvs(size=37)
+    >>> # pretend `data` is unknown and we want to fit a dist. to it
+    >>> pn.truncated_normal.fit(data)

+
+    In scipy, the distribution is defined as
+    ``stats.truncnorm(a, b, loc, scale)`` where
+
+    .. math::
+
+        a = \frac{\mathrm{lower bound}} - \mu}{\sigma}
+
+    and
+
+    .. math::
+
+        b = \frac{x_{\mathrm{upper bound}} - \mu}{\sigma}
+
+    Since ``a`` and ``b`` are directly linked to the location and scale
+    of the distribution as well as the lower and upper limits,
+    respectively, it's difficult to use the ``fit`` method of this
+    distirbution without either knowing a lot about it `a priori` or
+    assuming just as much.
