Documentation-only updates to the project README so the quickstart matches the real repo layout and matches how people set up a venv on common platforms.

Changes

Fix the “example notebooks” pointer: notebooks live under docs/examples, with links to the GitHub tree and the published Sphinx docs on Read the Docs.
Correct the “interpreted” typo and the Unix venv activation line (venv/bin/activate).
Add short Windows activation notes (cmd + PowerShell).
Add import numpy as np to the usage snippet so it runs when copied as-is.
Motivation
Low-friction onboarding for contributors (including GSoC applicants) and fewer broken paths in the first thing new users read.

Testing
Not applicable (Markdown only).
