    turns the :meth:`voltage` method into a "getter" for a read-only attribute with
    the same name.
 
+   The ``getter``, ``setter``, and ``deleter`` attributes of the returned
+   property object can also be used as decorators to mark the special
+   methods. The following is equivalent to the first example. ::
+
+            class C(object):
+                  def __init__(self): self._x = None
+                  @property
+                  def x(self): return self._x
+                  @x.setter
+                  def setx(self, value): self._x = value
+                  @x.deleter
+                  def delx(self): del self._x
+
+
+   The returned property also has the attributes ``fget``, ``fset``, and
+   ``fdel`` corresponding to the constructor arguments.

    This is a versatile function to create lists containing arithmetic progressions.
