     color (light gray for low proportions, dark gray to black for very high proportions).
+
+    Examples
+    --------
+    The `missing_vals_tbl()` function is useful for quickly identifying columns with missing values
+    in a table. Here's an example using the `nycflights` dataset (loaded using the `load_dataset()`
+    function as a Polars DataFrame):
+
+    ```{python}
+    import pointblank as pb
+
+    nycflights = pb.load_dataset("nycflights", tbl_type="polars")
+
+    pb.missing_vals_tbl(nycflights)
+    ```
+
+    The table shows the proportion of missing values in each column of the `nycflights` dataset. The
+    table is divided into sectors, with each sector representing a range of rows in the table (with
+    around 34,000 rows per sector). The proportion of missing values in each sector is calculated
+    for each column. The various shades of gray indicate the proportion of missing values in each
+    sector. Many columns have no missing values at all, and those sectors are colored light blue.
