-Description: # numpyencoder
-        
-        Custom Python JSON encoder for handling Numpy data types.
-        
-        **Example Use:**
-        
-        ```python
-        from numpyencoder import NumpyEncoder
-        
-        numpy_data = np.array([0, 1, 2, 3])
-        
-        with open(json_file, 'w') as file:
-            json.dump(numpy_data, file, indent=4, sort_keys=True,
-                      separators=(', ', ': '), ensure_ascii=False,
-                      cls=NumpyEncoder)
-        ```
