    """Return string that describes a value

    Parameters
    ----------
    article : str or None
        A definite or indefinite article. If the article is
        indefinite (i.e. "a" or "an") the appropriate one
        will be infered. Thus, the arguments of ``describe``
        can themselves represent what the resulting string
        will actually look like. If None, then no article
        will be prepended to the result. For non-articled
        description, values that are instances are treated
        definitely, while classes are handled indefinitely.
    value : any
        The value which will be named.
    name : str or None (default: None)
        Only applies when ``article`` is "the" - this
        ``name`` is a definite reference to the value.
        By default one will be infered from the value's
        type and repr methods.
    verbose : bool (default: False)
        Whether the name should be concise or verbose. When
        possible, verbose names include the module, and/or
        class name where an object was defined.
    capital : bool (default: False)
        Whether the first letter of the article should
        be capitalized or not. By default it is not.

    Examples
    --------
    Indefinite description:

    >>> describe("a", object())
    'an object'
    >>> describe("a", object)
    'an object'
    >>> describe("a", type(object))
    'a type'

    Definite description:

    >>> describe("the", object())
    "the object at '...'"
    >>> describe("the", object)
    'the object object'
    >>> describe("the", type(object))
    'the type type'

    Definitely named description:

    >>> describe("the", object(), "I made")
    'the object I made'
    >>> describe("the", object, "I will use")
    'the object I will use'
