 /// Return a value from a function.
 ///
-/// The documentation for this keyword is [not yet complete]. Pull requests welcome!
+/// A `return` marks the end of an execution path in a function:
 ///
-/// [not yet complete]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/34601
+/// ```
+/// fn foo() -> i32 {
+///     return 3;
+/// }
+/// assert_eq!(foo(), 3);
+/// ```
+///
+/// `return` is not needed when the returned value is the last expression in the
+/// function. In this case the `;` is omitted:
+///
+/// ```
+/// fn foo() -> i32 {
+///     3
+/// }
+/// assert_eq!(foo(), 3);
+/// ```
+///
+/// `return` returns from the function immediately (an "early return"):
+///
+/// ```no_run
+/// use std::fs::File;
+/// use std::io::{Error, ErrorKind, Read, Result};
+///
+/// fn main() -> Result<()> {
+///     let mut file = match File::open("foo.txt") {
+///         Ok(f) => f,
+///         Err(e) => return Err(e),
+///     };
+///
+///     let mut contents = String::new();
+///     let size = match file.read_to_string(&mut contents) {
+///         Ok(s) => s,
+///         Err(e) => return Err(e),
+///     };
+///
+///     if contents.contains("impossible!") {
+///         return Err(Error::new(ErrorKind::Other, "oh no!"));
+///     }
+///
+///     if size > 9000 {
+///         return Err(Error::new(ErrorKind::Other, "over 9000!"));
+///     }
+///
+///     assert_eq!(contents, "Hello, world!");
+///     Ok(())
