 class IIRFilter:
-    r"""
-    N-Order IIR filter
-    Assumes working with float samples normalized on [-1, 1]
+    """
+    Represents an N-order Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) filter.
+
+    This class implements a digital filter that operates on floating-point samples normalized
+    to the range [-1, 1].
 
-    ---
+    Attributes:
+        order (int): The order of the filter.
+        a_coeffs (list[float]): The coefficients of the denominator polynomial (feedback coefficients).
+        b_coeffs (list[float]): The coefficients of the numerator polynomial (feedforward coefficients).
+        input_history (list[float]): History of input samples for processing.
+        output_history (list[float]): History of output samples for processing.
 
-    Implementation details:
-    Based on the 2nd-order function from
-     https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_biquad_filter,
-    this generalized N-order function was made.
+    Note:
+        This class assumes that the filter operates in real-time and processes one sample at a time.
 
-    Using the following transfer function
-    H(z)=\frac{b_{0}+b_{1}z^{-1}+b_{2}z^{-2}+...+b_{k}z^{-k}}{a_{0}+a_{1}z^{-1}+a_{2}z^{-2}+...+a_{k}z^{-k}}
-    we can rewrite this to
-    y[n]={\frac{1}{a_{0}}}\left(\left(b_{0}x[n]+b_{1}x[n-1]+b_{2}x[n-2]+...+b_{k}x[n-k]\right)-\left(a_{1}y[n-1]+a_{2}y[n-2]+...+a_{k}y[n-k]\right)\right)
+    Example:
+        >>> filt = IIRFilter(2)
+        >>> filt.set_coefficients([1.0, -1.0, 0.5], [1.0, 0.0, -0.5])
+        >>> output = filt.process(0.5)
