Reference: Scipy

[kgryte]

@nakul-krishnakumar Yes, that can be added to the notes section of the docs (e.g., README and repl text file).

Left some comments, other than that I believe the PR looks good. I guess @kgryte will have a final review before this gets merged. Thank you for your work! @shubham220420
