Finds the occurrences of function names, special directives like data and functions and scipy constants in the docstrings of `module`. The following patterns are searched for: * 3 spaces followed by function name, and maybe some spaces, some dashes, and an explanation; only f

    Finds the occurrences of function names, special directives like data
    and functions and scipy constants in the docstrings of `module`. The
    following patterns are searched for:

    * 3 spaces followed by function name, and maybe some spaces, some

      refguide are formatted like this (mostly, there may be some false

    The `names_dict` is updated by reference and accessible in calling method

    names_dict : dict
        Dictionary which contains module name as key and a set of found
