     Multiply elementwise two matrices, at least one of which is sparse.

     Parameters
     ----------
-    x
+    x: SparseVariable
         A matrix variable.
-    y
+    y: SparseVariable
         A matrix variable.

     -------
-    A sparse matrix
-        `x` * `y`
+    result: SparseVariable
+        The elementwise multiplication of `x` and `y`.
 
     Notes
     -----
     At least one of `x` and `y` must be a sparse matrix.
-    The grad is regular, i.e. not structured.
