  * @param {boolean=} reverse Reverse the order of the array.
  * @returns {Array} Sorted copy of the source array.
  *
+ * To make AngularJS perform a sort, add orderBy to the ng-repeat. 
+ * The example below demonstrates setting the predicate to '-age' and reverse * to false.
+ *
+ * @example
+   <example module="orderByExample">
+     <file name="index.html">
+       <script>
+         angular.module('orderByExample', [])
