+# An Encoding instance represents a character encoding usable in Ruby. It is
+# defined as a constant under the Encoding namespace. It has a name and,
+# optionally, aliases:
+#
+#     Encoding::US_ASCII.name  # => "US-ASCII"
+#     Encoding::US_ASCII.names # => ["US-ASCII", "ASCII", "ANSI_X3.4-1968", "646"]
+#
+# A Ruby method that accepts an encoding as an argument will accept:
+#
+# *   An Encoding object.
+# *   The name of an encoding.
+# *   An alias for an encoding name.
+#
+# These are equivalent:
+#
+#     'foo'.encode(Encoding::US_ASCII) # Encoding object.
+#     'foo'.encode('US-ASCII')         # Encoding name.
+#     'foo'.encode('ASCII')            # Encoding alias.
+#
+# For a full discussion of encodings and their uses, see [the Encodings
+# document](rdoc-ref:encodings.rdoc).
+#
+# Encoding::ASCII_8BIT is a special-purpose encoding that is usually used for a
+# string of bytes, not a string of characters. But as the name indicates, its
+# characters in the ASCII range are considered as ASCII characters. This is
+# useful when you use other ASCII-compatible encodings.
