+# RBS By Example
+
+## Goal
+
+The purpose of this doc is to teach you how to write RBS signatures by using the standard library's methods as a guide.
+
+## Examples
+
+### Zero argument methods
+
+**Example:** `String#empty?`
+
+```ruby
+# .rb
+"".empty?
+# => true
+"hello".empty?
+# => false
+```
+
+```ruby
+# .rbs
+class String
+  def empty?: () -> bool
+end
+```
+
+`String`'s `#empty` method takes no parameters, and returns a boolean value
+
+### Single argument methods
+
+**Example:** `String#include?`
+
+```ruby
+# .rb
+"homeowner".include?("house")
+# => false
+"homeowner".include?("meow")
+# => true
+```
+
+```ruby
+class String
+  def include?: (String) -> bool
+end
+```
+
+`String`'s `include?` method takes one argument, a `String`, and returns a
+boolean value
+
+### Variable argument methods
+
+**Example:** `String#end_with?`
+
+```ruby
+# .rb
+"hello?".end_with?("!")
+# => false
+"hello?".end_with?("?")
+# => true
+"hello?".end_with?("?", "!")
+# => true
+"hello?".end_with?(".", "!")
+# => false
+```
+
+```ruby
+# .rbs
+class String
+  def end_with?: (*String) -> bool
+end
+```
+
+`String`'s `#end_with?` method takes any number of `String` arguments, and
+returns a boolean value.
+
+### Optional positional arguments
+
+**Example:** `String#ljust`
+
+```ruby
+# .rb
+"hello".ljust(4)
+#=> "hello"
+"hello".ljust(20)
+#=> "hello               "
+"hello".ljust(20, '1234')
+#=> "hello123412341234123"
+```
+
+```ruby
+# .rbs
+class String
+  def ljust: (Integer, ?String) -> String
+end
+```
+
+`String`'s `ljust` takes one `Integer` argument, and an optional `String` argument, indicated by the the `?` prefix marker. It returns a `String`.
+
+### Multiple signatures for a single method
+
+**Example:** `Array#*`
+
+```ruby
+# .rb
+[1, 2, 3] * ","
+# => "1,2,3"
+[1, 2, 3] * 2
+# => [1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3]
+```
+
+*Note:* Some of the signatures after this point include type variables (e.g. `Elem`, `T`).
+For now, it's safe to ignore them, but they're included for completeness.
+
+```ruby
+# .rbs
+class Array[Elem]
+  def *: (String) -> String
+       | (Integer) -> Array[Elem]
+end
+```
+
+`Array`'s `*` method, when given a `String` returns a `String`. When given an
+`Integer`, it returns an `Array` of the same contained type `Elem` (in our example case, `Elem` corresponds to `Integer`).
+
+### Union types
+
+**Example:** `String#<<`
+
+```ruby
+# .rb
+a = "hello "
+a << "world"
+#=> "hello world"
+a << 33
+#=> "hello world!"
+```
+
+```ruby
+# .rbs
+class String
+  def <<: (String | Integer) -> String
+end
+```
+
+`String`'s `<<` operator takes either a `String` or an `Integer`, and returns a `String`.
+
+### Nilable types
+
+```ruby
+# .rb
+[1, 2, 3].first
+# => 1
+[].first
+# => nil
+[1, 2, 3].first(2)
+# => [1, 2]
+[].first(2)
+# => []
+```
+
+```ruby
+# .rbs
+class Enumerable[Elem]
+  def first: () -> Elem?
+           | (Integer) -> Array[Elem]
+end
+```
+
+`Enumerable`'s `#first` method has two different signatures.
+
+When called with no arguments, the return value will either be an instance of
+whatever type is contained in the enumerable, or `nil`. We represent that with
+the type variable `Elem`, and the `?` suffix nilable marker.
+
+When called with an `Integer` positional argument, the return value will be an
+`Array` of whatever type is contained.
+
+The `?` syntax is a convenient shorthand for a union with nil. An equivalent union type woould be `(Elem | nil)`.
+
+### Keyword Arguments
+
+**Example**: `String#lines`
+
+```ruby
+# .rb
+"hello\nworld\n".lines
+# => ["hello\n", "world\n"]
+"hello  world".lines(' ')
+# => ["hello ", " ", "world"]
+"hello\nworld\n".lines(chomp: true)
+# => ["hello", "world"]
+```
+
+```ruby
+# .rbs
+class String
+  def lines: (?String, ?chomp: bool) -> Array[String]
+end
+```
+
+`String`'s `#lines` method take two arguments: one optional String argument, and another optional boolean keyword argument. It returns an `Array` of `String`s.
+
+Keyword arguments are declared similar to in ruby, with the keyword immediately followed by a colon. Keyword arguments that are optional are indicated as optional using the same `?` prefix as positional arguments.
+
+
+### Class methods
+
+**Example**: `Time.now`
+
+```ruby
+# .rb
+Time.now
+# => 2009-06-24 12:39:54 +0900
+```
+
+```ruby
+class Time
+  def self.now: () -> Time
+end
+```
+
+`Time`'s class method `now` takes no arguments, and returns an instance of the
+`Time` class.
+
+### Block Arguments
+
+**Example**: `Array#filter`
+
+```ruby
+# .rb
+[1,2,3,4,5].select {|num| num.even? }
+# => [2, 4]
+%w[ a b c d e f ].select {|v| v =~ /[aeiou]/ }
+# => ["a", "e"]
+[1,2,3,4,5].filter
+```
+
+```ruby
+# .rbs
+class Array[Elem]
+  def filter: () { (Elem) -> boolish } -> ::Array[Elem]
+            | () -> ::Enumerator[Elem, ::Array[Elem]]
+end
+```
+
+`Array`'s `#filter` method, when called with no arguments returns an Enumerator.
+
+When called with a block, the method returns an `Array` of whatever type the original contained. The block will take one argument, of the type of the contained value, and the block will return a truthy or falsy value.
+
+`boolish` is a special keyword for any type that will be treated as if it were a `bool`.
+
+### Type Variables
+
+**Example**: `Hash`, `Hash#keys`
+
+```ruby
+h = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200, "c" => 300, "d" => 400 }
+h.keys
+# => ["a", "b", "c", "d"]
+```
+
+```ruby
+# .rbs
+class Hash[K, V]
+  def keys: () -> Array[K]
+end
+```
+
+Generic types in RBS are parameterized at declaration time. These type variables are then available throughout all the methods contained in the `class` block.
+
+`Hash`'s `#keys` method takes no arguments, and returns an `Array` of the first type parameter. In the above example, `a` is of concrete type `Hash[String, Integer]`, so `#keys` returns an `Array` for `String`.
+
+
+```ruby
+# .rb
+a = [ "a", "b", "c", "d" ]
+a.collect {|x| x + "!"}
+# => ["a!", "b!", "c!", "d!"]
+a.collect.with_index {|x, i| x * i}
+# => ["", "b", "cc", "ddd"]
+```
+
+```ruby
+# .rbs
+class Array[Elem]
+  def collect: [U] () { (Elem) -> U } -> Array[U]
+             | () -> Enumerator[Elem, Array[untyped]]
+end
+```
+
+Type variables can also be introduced in methods. Here, in `Array`'s `#collect` method, we introduce a type variable `U`. The block passed to `#collect` will receive a parameter of type `Elem`, and return a value of type `U`. Then `#collect` will return an `Array` of type `U`.
+
+In this example, the method receives its signature from the inferred return type of the passed block. When then block is absent, as in when the method returns an `Enumerator`, we can't infer the type, and so the return value of the enumerator can only be described as `Array[untyped]`.
+
+### Tuples
+
+**Examples**: `Enumerable#partition`, `Enumerable#to_h`
+
+```ruby
+(1..6).partition { |v| v.even? }
+# => [[2, 4, 6], [1, 3, 5]]
+```
+
+```ruby
+class Enumerable[Elem]
+  def partition: () { (Elem) -> boolish } -> [Array[Elem], Array[Elem]]
+               | () -> ::Enumerator[Elem, [Array[Elem], Array[Elem] ]]
+end
+```
+
+`Enumerable`'s `partition` method, when given a block, returns a 2-item tuple of `Array`s containing the original type of the `Enumerable`.
+
+Tuples can be of any size, and they can have mixed types.
+
+```ruby
+(1..5).to_h {|x| [x, x ** 2]}
+# => {1=>1, 2=>4, 3=>9, 4=>16, 5=>25}
+```
+
+```ruby
+class Enumerable[Elem]
+  def to_h: () -> ::Hash[untyped, untyped]
+          | [T, U] () { (Elem) -> [T, U] } -> ::Hash[T, U]
+end
+```
+
+`Enumerable`'s `to_h` method, when given a block that returns a 2-item tuple, returns a `Hash` with keys the type of the first position in the tuple, and values the type of the second position in the tuple.

 The error means there is a type error on overloaded methods.
 The `rbs` test framework tries to the best error message for overloaded methods too, but it reports the `UnresolvedOverloadingError` when it fails.

+The error is reported when a method is defined multiple times, as RBS does not allow duplicate method definitions. When you need to overload a method, use the `...` syntax:
