| 3 | This library is the reference implementation of a parser for the TSDoc syntax. Using this library is an easy way to ensure that your tool is 100% compatible with the standard.

|
| 5 | ### What is TSDoc?
|
| 6 |
|
| 7 | **TSDoc** is a proposal to standardize the doc comments used in [TypeScript](http://www.typescriptlang.org/) source files. It allows different tools to extract content from comments without getting confused by each other's syntax. The **TSDoc** notation looks pretty familiar:
|

|
| 9 | ```typescript
|
| 10 | export class Statistics {
|
| 11 | /**
|
| 12 | * Returns the average of two numbers.
|
| 13 | *
|
| 14 | * @remarks
|
| 15 | * This method is part of the {@link core-library#Statistics | Statistics subsystem}.
|
| 16 | *
|
| 17 | * @param x - The first input number
|
| 18 | * @param y - The second input number
|
| 19 | * @returns The arithmetic mean of `x` and `y`
|
| 20 | *
|
| 21 | * @beta
|
| 22 | */
|
| 23 | public static getAverage(x: number, y: number): number {
|
| 24 | return (x + y) / 2.0;
|
| 25 | }
|
| 26 | }
|
| 27 | ```
