Clarification on instructions #115

Wasn't immediately obvious how to use this nice tool (had to look into tests to see how it's used). I propose a more complete python example.

N.B. you don't actually have to import and instantiate LineProfiler in your own code to test. That's what the kernprof script is for --- it injects the object into your code as it runs, so the only modification to your own code you need to do is decorate the functions you want to profile.
