 Unfortunately, deep copies are expensive, and sometimes impossible. You can alleviate this by only copying objects that need to be changed and by reusing the objects that haven't changed. Unfortunately, in today's JavaScript this can be cumbersome:

-  * `{$push: array}` `push()` all the items in `array` on the target
-  * `{$unshift: array}` `unshift()` all the items in `array` on the target

   * `{$splice: array of arrays}` for each item in `array()` call `splice()` on the target with the parameters provided by the item.

+  * `{$set: any}` replace the target entirely.

+## Examples
+
+### Simple push
+
+```js
+var initialArray = [1, 2, 3];
+var newArray = update(initialArray, {$push: [4]}); // => [1, 2, 3, 4]
+```
+`initialArray` is still `[1, 2, 3]`.
+
+### Nested collections
+
+```js
+var collection = [1, 2, {a: [12, 17, 15]}];
+var newCollection = update(collection, {2: {a: {$splice: [[1, 1, 13, 14]]}}});
+// => [1, 2, {a: [12, 13, 14, 15]}]
+```
+This accesses `collection`'s index `2`, key `a`, and does a splice of one item starting from index `1` (to remove `17`) while inserting `13` and `14`.
+
+### Updating a value based on its current one
+
+```js
+var obj = {a: 5, b: 3};
+var newObj = update(obj, {b: {$apply: function(x) {return x * 2;}}});
+// => {a: 5, b: 6}
+// This is equivalent, but gets verbose for deeply nested collections:
+var newObj2 = update(obj, {b: {$set: obj.b * 2}});
+```
+
+### (Shallow) merge
+
+```js
+var obj = {a: 5, b: 3};
+var newObj = update(obj, {$merge: {b: 6, c: 7}}); // => {a: 5, b: 6, c: 7}
+```
