Hi @Hell1213, I'd like to work on this issue. I'm comfortable with Python and can add Google-style docstrings to all public functions in utils/paths.py and utils/text.py.
I'll go through each public function carefully, understand what it does, and write clear and accurate docstrings covering the summary, args, and return values following the Google style format.
Could you please assign this to me?
