Closes #118

Fixes minor bug in merge_results

I did try to add a dosctring, but I'm a little confused on exactly what samples_n acually is. Feel free to edit yourself or let me know what to fill in/otherwise change.

samples_n is the number of live points at a given iteration (associated with a particular dead point/sample). It's defined somewhere in the docs, but I probably should try to improve the internal documentation to make this easier to understand.

As for the PR, this looks great. Would you be able to make a few (very minor) changes for style?

• Adding a _ preceding the function to highlight that it's only used internally, and then adding it to the function list at the beginning.
• Fixing a small typo in the docstring and filling in the samples_n description for the docstring.

Once that's done I'm happy to merge this in!
