 :code:`get_data(filename, delim = ',', column_name = 'None')` requires one argument:
 
 * **filename:** absolute or relative path to a valid (delimited .csv/.txt or matlab .mat) file;
+
+Several optional arguments are available:
+
 * **delim** _optional_: when loading a delimited .csv or .txt file, this specifies the delimiter used. Default delim = ',';
 * **column_name** _optional_: In delimited files with header: specifying column_name will return data from that column. Not specifying column_name for delimited files will assume the file contains only numerical data, returning np.nan values where data is not numerical. For matlab files: column_name specifies the table name in the matlab file.
