+Interpreting reports
+====================
+
+There are four statistics tracked in a coverage summary:
+
+* Function coverage is the percentage of functions which have been executed at
+  least once. A function is treated as having been executed if any of its
+  instantiations are executed.
+
+* Instantiation coverage is the percentage of function instantiations which
+  have been executed at least once.
+
+* Line coverage is the percentage of code lines which have been executed at
+  least once.
+
+* Region coverage is the percentage of code regions which have been executed at
+  least once. A code region may span multiple lines (e.g a large function with
+  no control flow). However, it's also possible for a single line to contain
+  multiple code regions (e.g some short-circuited logic).
