module YARD
  # A documentation string, or "docstring" for short, encapsulates the
  # comments and metadata, or "tags", of an object. Meta-data is expressed
  # in the form +@tag VALUE+, where VALUE can span over multiple lines as
  # long as they are indented. The following +@example+ tag shows how tags
  # can be indented:
  #
  #   # @example My example
  #   #   a = "hello world"
  #   #   a.reverse
  #   # @version 1.0
  #
  # Tags can be nested in a documentation string, though the {Tags::Tag}
  # itself is responsible for parsing the inner tags.
