 In its simplest form, Geocoder takes an address and searches for its latitude/longitude coordinates:

+results.first.coordinates

 The reverse is possible too. Given coordinates, it finds an address:
 
-    results = Geocoder.search([48.856614, 2.3522219])
-    results.first.address

 **The success and accuracy of geocoding depends entirely on the API being used to do these lookups.** Most queries work fairly well with the default configuration, but every application has different needs and every API has its particular strengths and weaknesses. If you need better coverage for your application you'll want to get familiar with the large number of supported APIs, listed in the [API Guide](https://github.com/alexreisner/geocoder/blob/master/README_API_GUIDE.md).
 
@@ -92,30 +97,40 @@ To automatically geocode your objects:
 
 **1.** Your model must provide a method that returns an address to geocode. This can be a single attribute, but it can also be a method that returns a string assembled from different attributes (eg: `city`, `state`, and `country`). For example, if your model has `street`, `city`, `state`, and `country` attributes you might do something like this:
 
-    def address
-      [street, city, state, country].compact.join(', ')
-    end
+```ruby
+def address
+  [street, city, state, country].compact.join(', ')
+end
+```
 
 **2.** Your model must have a way to store latitude/longitude coordinates. With ActiveRecord, add two attributes/columns (of type float or decimal) called `latitude` and `longitude`. For MongoDB, use a single field (of type Array) called `coordinates` (i.e., `field :coordinates, type: Array`). (See [Advanced Model Configuration](#advanced-model-configuration) for using different attribute names.)
 
 **3.** In your model, tell geocoder where to find the object's address:
 
-    geocoded_by :address
+```ruby
+geocoded_by :address
+```
 
 This adds a `geocode` method which you can invoke via callback:
 
-    after_validation :geocode
+```ruby
+after_validation :geocode
+```
 
 Reverse geocoding (given lat/lon coordinates, find an address) is similar:
 
-    reverse_geocoded_by :latitude, :longitude
-    after_validation :reverse_geocode
+```ruby
+reverse_geocoded_by :latitude, :longitude
+after_validation :reverse_geocode
+```
 
 With any geocoded objects, you can do the following:
 
-    obj.distance_to([43.9,-98.6])  # distance from obj to point
-    obj.bearing_to([43.9,-98.6])   # bearing from obj to point
-    obj.bearing_from(obj2)         # bearing from obj2 to obj
+```ruby
+obj.distance_to([43.9,-98.6])  # distance from obj to point
+obj.bearing_to([43.9,-98.6])   # bearing from obj to point
+obj.bearing_from(obj2)         # bearing from obj2 to obj
+```
 
 The `bearing_from/to` methods take a single argument which can be: a `[lat,lon]` array, a geocoded object, or a geocodable address (string). The `distance_from/to` methods also take a units argument (`:mi`, `:km`, or `:nm` for nautical miles). See [Distance and Bearing](#distance-and-bearing) below for more info.

 ### Latitude/Longitude Order in MongoDB
 
 Everywhere coordinates are passed to methods as two-element arrays, Geocoder expects them to be in the order: `[lat, lon]`. However, as per [the GeoJSON spec](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#positions), MongoDB requires that coordinates be stored longitude-first (`[lon, lat]`), so internally they are stored "backwards." Geocoder's methods attempt to hide this, so calling `obj.to_coordinates` (a method added to the object by Geocoder via `geocoded_by`) returns coordinates in the conventional order:
 
-    obj.to_coordinates  # => [37.7941013, -122.3951096] # [lat, lon]
+```ruby
+obj.to_coordinates  # => [37.7941013, -122.3951096] # [lat, lon]
+```
 
 whereas calling the object's coordinates attribute directly (`obj.coordinates` by default) returns the internal representation which is probably the reverse of what you want:
 
-    obj.coordinates     # => [-122.3951096, 37.7941013] # [lon, lat]
+```ruby
+obj.coordinates     # => [-122.3951096, 37.7941013] # [lon, lat]

 Geocoder adds `location` and `safe_location` methods to the standard `Rack::Request` object so you can easily look up the location of any HTTP request by IP address. For example, in a Rails controller or a Sinatra app:

 Please see [`lib/geocoder/configuration.rb`](https://github.com/alexreisner/geocoder/blob/master/lib/geocoder/configuration.rb) for a complete list of configuration options. Additionally, some lookups have their own special configuration options which are directly supported by Geocoder. For example, to specify a value for Google's `bounds` parameter:
 
-    # with Google:
-    Geocoder.search("Middletown", bounds: [[40.6,-77.9], [39.9,-75.9]])
+```ruby
+# with Google:
+Geocoder.search("Middletown", bounds: [[40.6,-77.9], [39.9,-75.9]])
+```
 
 Please see the [source code for each lookup](https://github.com/alexreisner/geocoder/tree/master/lib/geocoder/lookups) to learn about directly supported parameters. Parameters which are not directly supported can be specified using the `:params` option, which appends options to the query string of the geocoding request. For example:
 
-    # Nominatim's `countrycodes` parameter:
-    Geocoder.search("Rome", params: {countrycodes: "us,ca"})
+```ruby
+# Nominatim's `countrycodes` parameter:
+Geocoder.search("Rome", params: {countrycodes: "us,ca"})
 
-    # Google's `region` parameter:
-    Geocoder.search("Rome", params: {region: "..."})
+# Google's `region` parameter:
+Geocoder.search("Rome", params: {region: "..."})

 ### Configuring Multiple Services
 
 You can configure multiple geocoding services at once by using the service's name as a key for a sub-configuration hash, like this:

 In MySQL and Postgres, queries use a bounding box to limit the number of points over which a more precise distance calculation needs to be done. To take advantage of this optimisation, you need to add a composite index on latitude and longitude. In your Rails migration:
 
-    add_index :table, [:latitude, :longitude]
+```ruby
+add_index :table, [:latitude, :longitude]

 In MongoDB, by default, the methods `geocoded_by` and `reverse_geocoded_by` create a geospatial index. You can avoid index creation with the `:skip_index option`, for example:

 Advanced Model Configuration
 ----------------------------
 
 You are not stuck with the `latitude` and `longitude` database column names (with ActiveRecord) or the `coordinates` array (Mongo) for storing coordinates. For example:
 
-    geocoded_by :address, latitude: :lat, longitude: :lon  # ActiveRecord
-    geocoded_by :address, coordinates: :coords             # MongoDB
+```ruby
+geocoded_by :address, latitude: :lat, longitude: :lon  # ActiveRecord
+geocoded_by :address, coordinates: :coords             # MongoDB
+```
 
 For reverse geocoding, you can specify the attribute where the address will be stored. For example:
 
-    reverse_geocoded_by :latitude, :longitude, address: :loc    # ActiveRecord
-    reverse_geocoded_by :coordinates, address: :street_address  # MongoDB
+```ruby
+reverse_geocoded_by :latitude, :longitude, address: :loc    # ActiveRecord
+reverse_geocoded_by :coordinates, address: :street_address  # MongoDB
+```
 
 To specify geocoding parameters in your model:
 
-    geocoded_by :address, params: {region: "..."}
+```ruby
+geocoded_by :address, params: {region: "..."}
+```
 
 Supported parameters: `:lookup`, `:ip_lookup`, `:language`, and `:params`. You can specify an anonymous function if you want to set these on a per-request basis. For example, to use different lookups for objects in different regions:
 
-    geocoded_by :address, lookup: lambda{ |obj| obj.geocoder_lookup }
+```ruby

 ### Custom Result Handling
 
 So far we have seen examples where geocoding results are assigned automatically to predefined object attributes. However, you can skip the auto-assignment by providing a block which handles the parsed geocoding results any way you like, for example:
 
-    reverse_geocoded_by :latitude, :longitude do |obj,results|
-      if geo = results.first
-        obj.city    = geo.city
-        obj.zipcode = geo.postal_code
-        obj.country = geo.country_code
-      end

 If you have just added geocoding to an existing application with a lot of objects, you can use this Rake task to geocode them all:
 
-    rake geocode:all CLASS=YourModel
+```sh
+rake geocode:all CLASS=YourModel
+```
 
 If you need reverse geocoding instead, call the task with REVERSE=true:
 
-    rake geocode:all CLASS=YourModel REVERSE=true
+```sh
+rake geocode:all CLASS=YourModel REVERSE=true
+```
 
 In either case, it won't try to geocode objects that are already geocoded. The task will print warnings if you exceed the rate limit for your geocoding service. Some services enforce a per-second limit in addition to a per-day limit. To avoid exceeding the per-second limit, you can add a `SLEEP` option to pause between requests for a given amount of time. You can also load objects in batches to save memory, for example:
 
-    rake geocode:all CLASS=YourModel SLEEP=0.25 BATCH=100
+```sh
+rake geocode:all CLASS=YourModel SLEEP=0.25 BATCH=100
+```
 
 To avoid exceeding per-day limits you can add a `LIMIT` option. However, this will ignore the `BATCH` value, if provided.
 
-    rake geocode:all CLASS=YourModel LIMIT=1000
+```sh
+rake geocode:all CLASS=YourModel LIMIT=1000
+```
 
 
 Testing
@@ -500,42 +591,54 @@ Testing
 
 When writing tests for an app that uses Geocoder it may be useful to avoid network calls and have Geocoder return consistent, configurable results. To do this, configure the `:test` lookup and/or `:ip_lookup`
 
-    Geocoder.configure(lookup: :test, ip_lookup: :test)
+```ruby
+Geocoder.configure(lookup: :test, ip_lookup: :test)
+```
 
 Add stubs to define the results that will be returned:
 
-    Geocoder::Lookup::Test.add_stub(
-      "New York, NY", [
-        {
-          'coordinates'  => [40.7143528, -74.0059731],
-          'address'      => 'New York, NY, USA',
-          'state'        => 'New York',
-          'state_code'   => 'NY',
-          'country'      => 'United States',
-          'country_code' => 'US'
-        }
-      ]

+      'country'      => 'United States',
+      'country_code' => 'US'
+    }
+  ]
+)
+```
 
 With the above stub defined, any query for "New York, NY" will return the results array that follows. You can also set a default stub, to be returned when no other stub matches a given query:
 
-    Geocoder::Lookup::Test.set_default_stub(
-      [
-        {
-          'coordinates'  => [40.7143528, -74.0059731],

-          'state'        => 'New York',
-          'state_code'   => 'NY',
-          'country'      => 'United States',
-          'country_code' => 'US'
-        }
-      ]
-    )
+```ruby
+Geocoder::Lookup::Test.set_default_stub(
+  [
+    {
+      'coordinates'  => [40.7143528, -74.0059731],

+      'country'      => 'United States',
+      'country_code' => 'US'
+    }
+  ]
+)
+```
+
+You may also delete a single stub, or reset all stubs _including the default stub_:
+
+```ruby
+Geocoder::Lookup::Test.delete_stub('New York, NY')
+Geocoder::Lookup::Test.reset
+```
 
 Notes:
 
 - Keys must be strings (not symbols) when calling `add_stub` or `set_default_stub`. For example `'country' =>` not `:country =>`.
-- To clear stubs (e.g. prior to another spec), use `Geocoder::Lookup::Test.reset`. This will clear all stubs _including the default stub_.
 - The stubbed result objects returned by the Test lookup do not support all the methods real result objects do. If you need to test interaction with real results it may be better to use an external stubbing tool and something like WebMock or VCR to prevent network calls.
 
 
@@ -544,21 +647,27 @@ Error Handling
 
 By default Geocoder will rescue any exceptions raised by calls to a geocoding service and return an empty array. You can override this on a per-exception basis, and also have Geocoder raise its own exceptions for certain events (eg: API quota exceeded) by using the `:always_raise` option:
 
-    Geocoder.configure(always_raise: [SocketError, Timeout::Error])
+```ruby
+Geocoder.configure(always_raise: [SocketError, Timeout::Error])
+```
 
 You can also do this to raise all exceptions:
 
-    Geocoder.configure(always_raise: :all)
+```ruby
+Geocoder.configure(always_raise: :all)
+```
 
 The raise-able exceptions are:
 
-    SocketError
-    Timeout::Error
-    Geocoder::OverQueryLimitError
-    Geocoder::RequestDenied
-    Geocoder::InvalidRequest
-    Geocoder::InvalidApiKey
-    Geocoder::ServiceUnavailable
+```ruby
+SocketError
+Timeout::Error
+Geocoder::OverQueryLimitError
+Geocoder::RequestDenied
+Geocoder::InvalidRequest
+Geocoder::InvalidApiKey
+Geocoder::ServiceUnavailable
+```
 
 Note that only a few of the above exceptions are raised by any given lookup, so there's no guarantee if you configure Geocoder to raise `ServiceUnavailable` that it will actually be raised under those conditions (because most APIs don't return 503 when they should; you may get a `Timeout::Error` instead). Please see the source code for your particular lookup for details.

 ### Unexpected Responses from Geocoding Services
 
 Take a look at the server's raw response. You can do this by getting the request URL in an app console:
 
-    Geocoder::Lookup.get(:nominatim).query_url(Geocoder::Query.new("..."))
+```ruby
+Geocoder::Lookup.get(:nominatim).query_url(Geocoder::Query.new("..."))
+```
 
 Replace `:nominatim` with the lookup you are using and replace `...` with the address you are trying to geocode. Then visit the returned URL in your web browser. Often the API will return an error message that helps you resolve the problem. If, after reading the raw response, you believe there is a problem with Geocoder, please post an issue and include both the URL and raw response body.
 
 You can also fetch the response in the console:
 
-    Geocoder::Lookup.get(:nominatim).send(:fetch_raw_data, Geocoder::Query.new("..."))
+```ruby
+Geocoder::Lookup.get(:nominatim).send(:fetch_raw_data, Geocoder::Query.new("..."))

 The `near` method will not look across the 180th meridian to find objects close to a given point. In practice this is rarely an issue outside of New Zealand and certain surrounding islands. This problem does not exist with the zero-meridian. The problem is due to a shortcoming of the Haversine formula which Geocoder uses to calculate distances.
 
 
-Reporting Issues
-----------------
-
-When reporting an issue, please list the version of Geocoder you are using and any relevant information about your application (Rails version, database type and version, etc). Please describe as specifically as you can what behavior you are seeing (eg: an error message? a nil return value?).
-
-Please DO NOT use GitHub issues to ask questions about how to use Geocoder. Sites like [StackOverflow](http://www.stackoverflow.com/) are a better forum for such discussions.

-
-Contributing
-------------
-
-Contributions are welcome via Github pull requests. If you are new to the project and looking for a way to get involved, try picking up an issue with a "beginner-task" label. Hints about what needs to be done are usually provided.
-
-For all contributions, please respect the following guidelines:
-
-* Each pull request should implement ONE feature or bugfix. If you want to add or fix more than one thing, submit more than one pull request.
-* Do not commit changes to files that are irrelevant to your feature or bugfix (eg: `.gitignore`).
-* Do not add dependencies on other gems.
-* Do not add unnecessary `require` statements which could cause LoadErrors on certain systems.
-* Remember: Geocoder needs to run outside of Rails. Don't assume things like ActiveSupport are available.
-* Be willing to accept criticism and work on improving your code; Geocoder is used by thousands of developers and care must be taken not to introduce bugs.
-* Be aware that the pull request review process is not immediate, and is generally proportional to the size of the pull request.
-* If your pull request is merged, please do not ask for an immediate release of the gem. There are many factors contributing to when releases occur (remember that they affect thousands of apps with Geocoder in their Gemfiles). If necessary, please install from the Github source until the next official release.
