 class CSV
+  # = \CSV::Row
+  # A \CSV::Row instance represents a \CSV table row.
+  # (see {class CSV}[../CSV.html]).
   #
-  # A CSV::Row is part Array and part Hash. It retains an order for the fields
-  # and allows duplicates just as an Array would, but also allows you to access
-  # fields by name just as you could if they were in a Hash.
+  # The instance may have:
+  # - Fields: each is an object, not necessarily a \String.
+  # - Headers: each serves a key, and also need not be a \String.
   #
-  # All rows returned by CSV will be constructed from this class, if header row
-  # processing is activated.
+  # === Instance Methods
+  #
+  # \CSV::Row has three groups of instance methods:
+  # - Its own internally defined instance methods.
+  # - Methods included by module Enumerable.
+  # - Methods delegated to class Array.:
+  #   * Array#empty?
+  #   * Array#length
+  #   * Array#size
+  #
+  # == Creating a \CSV::Row Instance
+  #
+  # Commonly, a new \CSV::Row instance is created by parsing \CSV source
+  # that has headers:
+  #   source = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
+  #   table = CSV.parse(source, headers: true)
+  #   table.each {|row| p row }
+  # Output:
+  #   #<CSV::Row "Name":"foo" "Value":"0">
+  #   #<CSV::Row "Name":"bar" "Value":"1">
+  #   #<CSV::Row "Name":"baz" "Value":"2">
+  #
+  # You can also create a row directly. See ::new.
+  #
+  # == Headers
+  #
+  # Like a \CSV::Table, a \CSV::Row has headers.
+  #
+  # A \CSV::Row that was created by parsing \CSV source
+  # inherits its headers from the table:
+  #   source = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
+  #   table = CSV.parse(source, headers: true)
+  #   row = table.first
+  #   row.headers # => ["Name", "Value"]
+  #
+  # You can also create a new row with headers;
+  # like the keys in a \Hash, the headers need not be Strings:
+  #   row = CSV::Row.new([:name, :value], ['foo', 0])
+  #   row.headers # => [:name, :value]
+  #
+  # The new row retains its headers even if added to a table
+  # that has headers:
+  #   table << row # => #<CSV::Table mode:col_or_row row_count:5>
+  #   row.headers # => [:name, :value]
+  #   row[:name] # => "foo"
+  #   row['Name'] # => nil
+  #
+  #
+  #
+  # == Accessing Fields
+  #
+  # You may access a field in a \CSV::Row with either its \Integer index
+  # (\Array-style) or its header (\Hash-style).
+  #
+  # Fetch a field using method #[]:
+  #   row = CSV::Row.new(['Name', 'Value'], ['foo', 0])
+  #   row[1] # => 0
+  #   row['Value'] # => 0
+  #
+  # Set a field using method #[]=:
+  #   row = CSV::Row.new(['Name', 'Value'], ['foo', 0])
+  #   row # => #<CSV::Row "Name":"foo" "Value":0>
+  #   row[0] = 'bar'
+  #   row['Value'] = 1
+  #   row # => #<CSV::Row "Name":"bar" "Value":1>

 class CSV
+  # = \CSV::Table
+  # A \CSV::Table instance represents \CSV data.
+  # (see {class CSV}[../CSV.html]).
   #
-  # A CSV::Table is a two-dimensional data structure for representing CSV
-  # documents. Tables allow you to work with the data by row or column,
-  # manipulate the data, and even convert the results back to CSV, if needed.
+  # The instance may have:
+  # - Rows: each is a Table::Row object.
+  # - Headers: names for the columns.
   #
-  # All tables returned by CSV will be constructed from this class, if header
-  # row processing is activated.
+  # === Instance Methods
   #
+  # \CSV::Table has three groups of instance methods:
+  # - Its own internally defined instance methods.
+  # - Methods included by module Enumerable.
+  # - Methods delegated to class Array.:
+  #   * Array#empty?
+  #   * Array#length
+  #   * Array#size
+  #
+  # == Creating a \CSV::Table Instance
+  #
+  # Commonly, a new \CSV::Table instance is created by parsing \CSV source
+  # using headers:
+  #   source = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
+  #   table = CSV.parse(source, headers: true)
+  #   table.class # => CSV::Table
+  #
+  # You can also create an instance directly. See ::new.
+  #
+  # == Headers
+  #
+  # If a table has headers, the headers serve as labels for the columns of data.
+  # Each header serves as the label for its column.
+  #
+  # The headers for a \CSV::Table object are stored as an \Array of Strings.
+  #
+  # Commonly, headers are defined in the first row of \CSV source:
+  #   source = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
+  #   table = CSV.parse(source, headers: true)
+  #   table.headers # => ["Name", "Value"]
+  #
+  # If no headers are defined, the \Array is empty:
+  #   table = CSV::Table.new([])
+  #   table.headers # => []
+  #
+  # == Access Modes
+  #
+  # \CSV::Table provides three modes for accessing table data:
+  # - \Row mode.
+  # - Column mode.
+  # - Mixed mode (the default for a new table).
+  #
+  # The access mode for a\CSV::Table instance affects the behavior
+  # of some of its instance methods:
+  # - #[]
+  # - #[]=
+  # - #delete
+  # - #delete_if
+  # - #each
+  # - #values_at
+  #
+  # === \Row Mode
+  #
+  # Set a table to row mode with method #by_row!:
+  #   source = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
+  #   table = CSV.parse(source, headers: true)
+  #   table.by_row! # => #<CSV::Table mode:row row_count:4>
+  #
+  # Specify a single row by an \Integer index:
+  #   # Get a row.
+  #   table[1] # => #<CSV::Row "Name":"bar" "Value":"1">
+  #   # Set a row, then get it.
+  #   table[1] = CSV::Row.new(['Name', 'Value'], ['bam', 3])
+  #   table[1] # => #<CSV::Row "Name":"bam" "Value":3>
+  #
+  # Specify a sequence of rows by a \Range:
+  #   # Get rows.
+  #   table[1..2] # => [#<CSV::Row "Name":"bam" "Value":3>, #<CSV::Row "Name":"baz" "Value":"2">]
+  #   # Set rows, then get them.
+  #   table[1..2] = [
+  #     CSV::Row.new(['Name', 'Value'], ['bat', 4]),
+  #     CSV::Row.new(['Name', 'Value'], ['bad', 5]),
+  #   ]
+  #   table[1..2] # => [["Name", #<CSV::Row "Name":"bat" "Value":4>], ["Value", #<CSV::Row "Name":"bad" "Value":5>]]
+  #
+  # === Column Mode
+  #
+  # Set a table to column mode with method #by_col!:
+  #   source = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
+  #   table = CSV.parse(source, headers: true)
+  #   table.by_col! # => #<CSV::Table mode:col row_count:4>
+  #
+  # Specify a column by an \Integer index:
+  #   # Get a column.
+  #   table[0]
+  #   # Set a column, then get it.
+  #   table[0] = ['FOO', 'BAR', 'BAZ']
+  #   table[0] # => ["FOO", "BAR", "BAZ"]
+  #
+  # Specify a column by its \String header:
+  #   # Get a column.
+  #   table['Name'] # => ["FOO", "BAR", "BAZ"]
+  #   # Set a column, then get it.
+  #   table['Name'] = ['Foo', 'Bar', 'Baz']
+  #   table['Name'] # => ["Foo", "Bar", "Baz"]
+  #
+  # === Mixed Mode
+  #
+  # In mixed mode, you can refer to either rows or columns:
+  # - An \Integer index refers to a row.
+  # - A \Range index refers to multiple rows.
+  # - A \String index refers to a column.
+  #
+  # Set a table to mixed mode with method #by_col_or_row!:
+  #   source = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
