```

When writing examples, please try to make them compile. This allows us to test
them. If you fail to write an example that is both complete and readable,
please at least mark your example code with `ignore` as in here:
```rust,ignore
// A non-runnable example of the pattern in action, should be mostly code, commented
// liberally.
```
