 6    label to allow an ordering of calls to be re-established. Additionally, as
 7    the actor stores `func` so that copying of `func` only occurs on
 8    initialisation opposed to every call of `func`.

10    Notes
11    -----
12    All method calls must be proceeded by ``.remote``. For example, to call the
13    ``__init__`` method use:
14
15    .. code-block:: python
16    
17        remote_labelled_actor = RemoteLabelledActor.remote(func)
18
19    To call the ``run`` method use:
20    
21    .. code-block:: python
22    
23        remote_labelled_actor.run.remote(label, *args)
24
25    This is required as the instance is a remote ``ray`` actor.
