 To simplify this example code, the vector type that should be used (`Vec{N,T}`) is passed in explicitly as additional type argument. This routine is e.g. called as `vadd!(xs, ys, Vec{8,Float64})`.
+Note that this code is not expected to outperform the standard scalar way of
+doing this operation since the Julia optimizer will easily rewrite that to use
+SIMD under the hood. It is merely shown as an illustration of how to load and
+store data into `Vector`s using SIMD.jl

 These operators and functions are always applied element-wise, i.e. they are applied to each element in parallel, yielding again a SIMD vector as result. This means that e.g. multiplying two vectors yields a vector, and comparing two vectors yields a vector of booleans. This behaviour might seem strange and slightly unusual, but corresponds to the machine instructions provided by the hardware. It is also what is usually needed to vectorize loops.
 
 The SIMD package also provides conversion operators from scalars and tuples to SIMD vectors and from SIMD vectors to tuples. Additionally, there are `getindex` and `setindex` functions to access individual vector elements.  SIMD vectors are immutable (like tuples), and `setindex` (note there is no exclamation mark at the end of the name) thus returns the modified vector.

 ## Reduction operations

 Example:
-```Julia

 v = Vec{4,Float64}((1,2,3,4))
 sum(v)
 10.0
 ```
 
+It is also possible to use reduce with bit operations:

+julia> v = Vec{4,UInt16}((1,2,3,4))

+## Overflow operations
+
+Overflow operations do the operation but also give back a flag that indicates
+whether the result of the operation overflowed.
+Note that these only work on Julia with LLVM 9 or higher (Julia 1.5 or higher):
+The functions `Base.Checked.add_with_overflow`, `Base.Checked.sub_with_overflow`,
+`Base.Checked.mul_with_overflow` are extended to work on `Vec`. :
+
+```julia
+julia> v = Vec{4, Int8}((40, -80, 70, -10))
+<4 x Int8>[40, -80, 70, -10]
+
+julia> Base.Checked.add_with_overflow(v, v)
+(<4 x Int8>[80, 96, -116, -20], <4 x Bool>[0, 1, 1, 0])
+
+julia> Base.Checked.add_with_overflow(Int8(-80), Int8(-80))
+(96, true)

+julia> Base.Checked.sub_with_overflow(v, 120)
+(<4 x Int8>[-80, 56, -50, 126], <4 x Bool>[0, 1, 0, 1])
+
+julia> Base.Checked.mul_with_overflow(v, 2)

+```
+
+## Saturation arithmetic
+
+Saturation arithmetic is a version of arithmetic in which operations are limited
+to a fixed range between a minimum and maximum value. If the result of an
+operation is greater than the maximum value, the result is set (or “clamped”) to
+this maximum. If it is below the minimum, it is clamped to this minimum.
+
+
+```julia
+julia> v = Vec{4, Int8}((40, -80, 70, -10))
+<4 x Int8>[40, -80, 70, -10]
+
+julia> SIMD.add_saturate(v, v)
+<4 x Int8>[80, -128, 127, -20]
+
+julia> SIMD.sub_saturate(v, 120)
+<4 x Int8>[-80, -128, -50, -128]
+```

 ## Accessing arrays
 
 When using explicit SIMD vectorization, it is convenient to allocate arrays still as arrays of scalars, not as arrays of vectors. The `vload` and `vstore` functions allow reading vectors from and writing vectors into arrays, accessing several contiguous array elements.
