//! Overloadable operators
//!
//! Implementing these traits allows you to get an effect similar to
//! overloading operators.
//!
//! The values for the right hand side of an operator are automatically
//! borrowed, so `a + b` is sugar for `a.add(&b)`.
//!
//! All of these traits are imported by the prelude, so they are available in
//! every Rust program.
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! This example creates a `Point` struct that implements `Add` and `Sub`, and then
//! demonstrates adding and subtracting two `Point`s.
//!
//! ```rust
//! #![feature(associated_types)]
//!
//! use std::ops::{Add, Sub};
//!
//! #[derive(Show)]
//! struct Point {
//!     x: int,
//!     y: int
//! }
//!
//! impl Add for Point {
//!     type Output = Point;
//!
//!     fn add(self, other: Point) -> Point {
//!         Point {x: self.x + other.x, y: self.y + other.y}
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! impl Sub for Point {
//!     type Output = Point;
//!
//!     fn sub(self, other: Point) -> Point {
//!         Point {x: self.x - other.x, y: self.y - other.y}
//!     }
//! }
//! fn main() {
//!     println!("{:?}", Point {x: 1, y: 0} + Point {x: 2, y: 3});
//!     println!("{:?}", Point {x: 1, y: 0} - Point {x: 2, y: 3});
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! See the documentation for each trait for a minimum implementation that prints
//! something to the screen.
