Comment (by tscrim):

 Nathann, you write the documentation then (as a review commit).

 There is no class `Alphabet`; it just is an alias (or you can think of it
 as a facade) for `build_alphabet`. Also IMO, the examples are worth a 1000
 words trying to explain all possible combinations in the docstring for the
 variables. From Webster: "Hidden (adjective): not seen or known, being out
 of sight or not readily apparent". So they are keys and a function on the
 keys which are not seen or are out of sight.

 Furthermore, they are a few harmless merges of the `develop` branch in the
 history, but I don't want to wait an hour+ to switch between branches and
 test something in Sage. In fact, on most projects I've seen, the git
 history consists of many very small commits and can be called "messy".
