-    A sparse CSR matrix.
+    SparseCSRMatrix represents a sparse matrix in Compressed Sparse Row (CSR) 
format.
+
+    Attributes:
+        indptr : array
+            Index pointer array.
+        indices : array
+            Column indices of the corresponding non-zero values.
+        shape : tuple
+            Shape of the matrix.
+        dim_names : list, optional
+            Names of the dimensions.
+
+    Example:
+        >>> import pyarrow as pa
+        >>> indptr = pa.array([0, 2, 3])
+        >>> indices = pa.array([0, 2, 1])
+        >>> shape = (2, 3)
+        >>> tensor = pa.SparseCSRMatrix(indptr, indices, shape)
+        >>> print(tensor)

Review Comment:
   Did you meant to use one of the `from_*` methods here?
   
   We do not use `SparseCSRMatrix`'s constructor directly, see: 
https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/ada8750917cd2ec2ae8a605d2673d78ef04c82e4/python/pyarrow/tensor.pxi#L617-L619
   
   Could you change the example to use one of `pyarrow.SparseCSRMatrix.from_*` 
functions and also add examples in separate `pyarrow.SparseCSRMatrix.from_*` 
functions?
   
   Attributes part should also be removed here (note we use NumPy style 
docstrings).
   
   Could we also then add similar examples (with outputs) to other tensor 
formats/classes?

+Tensors
+=======
+
+PyArrow supports both dense and sparse tensors. Dense tensors store all data 
values explicitly, while sparse tensors represent only the non-zero elements 
and their locations, making them efficient for storage and computation.

+PyArrow supports the following sparse tensor formats:
+
+.. autosummary::
+   :toctree: ../generated/
+
+   SparseCOOTensor
+   SparseCSRMatrix
+   SparseCSCMatrix
+   SparseCSFTensor
+
+"""SparseCOOTensor"""
+
+The ``SparseCOOTensor`` represents a sparse tensor in Coordinate (COO) format, 
where non-zero elements are stored as tuples of row and column indices.
+
+Example:
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   import pyarrow as pa
+
+   indices = pa.array([[0, 0], [1, 2]])
+   data = pa.array([1, 2])
+   shape = (2, 3)
+
+   tensor = pa.SparseCOOTensor(indices, data, shape)

Review Comment:
   We should use one of the `pyarrow.SparseCOOTensor.from_*` functions here and 
add the output from the print statement.

Review Comment:
   I would add code examples  to `docs/source/python/data.rst` and keep the 
reference docs cleaner.
   
   We do not have a unified way of writing code blocks, 
[unfortunately](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/28859). But we do use 
prompt characters and add output, see example 
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apache/arrow/refs/heads/main/docs/source/python/numpy.rst.
