In Sphinx, is there a way to document parameters along with declaring them?

Question

I prefer to document each parameter (as needed) on the same line where I declare the parameter in order to apply D.R.Y.

If I have code like this:

def foo

You can't do that without a preprocessor, as comments don't exist for Python once the source has been compiled. To avoid repeating yourself, remove the comments and document the parameters only in the docstring, this is the standard way to document your arguments.
