Location of the documentation

10 minutes to pandas

Documentation problem

Throughout the page, there are code examples with an accompanying explanation of what is happening. The explanation will sometimes end in a colon, and other times end with a period. Here is a screenshot of the inconsistency:

Suggested fix for documentation

I think that having a colon is the correct usage considering that the sentences are explaining the code block underneath it. I also think it would be better for the page to be consistent in punctuation. In my pull request, I've changed all the instances where I think this is applicable, as well as changing a couple of wordings to be easier to understand.
