 ## This module implements an algorithm to compute the
 ## `diff`:idx: between two sequences of lines.
 ##
-## A basic example of `diffInt` on 2 arrays of integers:
-##
-## .. code:: Nim
-##
-##   import experimental/diff
-##   echo diffInt([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8], [-1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 666, 7, 42])
-##
-## Another short example of `diffText` to diff strings:
-##
-## .. code:: Nim
-##
-##   import experimental/diff
-##   # 2 samples of text for testing (from "The Call of Cthulhu" by Lovecraft)
-##   let txt0 = """I have looked upon all the universe has to hold of horror,
-##   even skies of spring and flowers of summer must ever be poison to me."""
-##   let txt1 = """I have looked upon all your code has to hold of bugs,
-##   even skies of spring and flowers of summer must ever be poison to me."""
-##
-##   echo diffText(txt0, txt1)
