+## Introduction
+
+Scala 2.10 introduced a new feature called *implicit classes*.  An *implicit class* is a class
+marked with the `implicit` keyword.  This keyword makes the class' primary constructor available 
+for implicit conversions when the class is in scope.
+
+Implicit classes were proposed in [SIP-13](http://docs.scala-lang.org/sips/pending/implicit-classes.html).
+
+## Usage
+
+To create an implicit class, simply place the the `implicit` keyword in front of an appropriate 
+class.  Here's an example:
+
+    object Helpers {
+      implicit class IntWithTimes(x: Int) {
+        def times[A](f: => A): Unit = {
+          def loop(current: Int): Unit =
+            if(current > 0) {
+              f
+              loop(current - 1)
+            }
+          loop(x)
+        }
+      }
+    }
+
+This example creates the implicit class `IntWithTimes`.  This class wraps an `Int` value and provides
+a new method, `times`.   To use this class, just import it into scope and call the `times` method.
+Here's an example:
+
+    scala> import Helpers._
+    import Helpers._
+    
+    scala> 5 times println("HI")
+    HI
+    HI
+    HI
+    HI
+    HI
+
+For an implicit class to work, its name must be in scope and unambiuous, like any other implicit
+value or conversion.
+
+
+## Restrictions
+
+Implicit classes have the following restrictions:
+
+**1. They must be defined inside of another `trait`/`class`/`object`.**
+
+
+    object Helpers {
+       implicit class RichInt(x: Int) // OK!
+    }
+    implicit class RichDouble(x: Double) // BAD!
+
+
+**2. They may only take one non-implicit argument in their constructor.**
+
+  
+    implicit class RichDate(date: java.util.Date) // OK!
+    implicit class Indexer[T](collecton: Seq[T], index: Int) // BAD!
+    implicit class Indexer[T](collecton: Seq[T])(implicit index: Index) // OK!
+
+
+While it's possible to create an implicit class with more than one non-implicit argument, such classes
+aren't used during implicit lookup.
+
+  
+**3. There may not be any method, member or object in scope with the same name as the implicit class.** 
+
+*Note: This means an implicit class cannot be a case class*.
+  
+    object Bar
+    implicit class Bar(x: Int) // BAD!
+    
+    val x = 5
+    implicit class x(y: Int) // BAD!
+    
+    implicit case class Baz(x: Int) // BAD!
+
