 ##Validate and Serialize
 
 #```ruby
 # Serialize directly to file
+
 p.serialize("example.xlsx")
 
 # or
 
 #Serialize to a stream
-s = p.to_stream()
-File.open('example_streamed.xlsx', 'w') { |f| f.write(s.read) }
+if examples.include? :streaming
+  s = p.to_stream()
+  File.open('example_streamed.xlsx', 'w') { |f| f.write(s.read) }
+end
 #```
 
 ##Using Shared Strings
 
 #```ruby
 # This is required by Numbers
-p.use_shared_strings = true
-p.serialize("shared_strings_example.xlsx")
+if examples.include? :shared_strings
+  p.use_shared_strings = true
+  p.serialize("shared_strings_example.xlsx")
+end
 #```
 
 #p.validate do |er|
-  #puts er.inspect
+#puts er.inspect
 #end
 ##Disabling Autowidth
 
 #```ruby
-p = Axlsx::Package.new
-p.use_autowidth = false
-wb = p.workbook
-wb.add_worksheet(:name => "Manual Widths") do | sheet |
-  sheet.add_row ['oh look! no autowidth']
+if examples.include? :no_autowidth
+  p = Axlsx::Package.new
+  p.use_autowidth = false
+  wb = p.workbook
+  wb.add_worksheet(:name => "Manual Widths") do | sheet |
+    sheet.add_row ['oh look! no autowidth']
+  end
+  p.validate.each { |e| puts e.message }
+  p.serialize("no-use_autowidth.xlsx")
 end
-p.validate.each { |e| puts e.message }
-p.serialize("no-use_autowidth.xlsx")
