    <section name="Sample code">
      <p>
        <ul>
          <li>Displaying the contents of a table:
            <pre>System.out.println(Database.open(new File("my.mdb")).getTable("MyTable").display());</pre>
          </li>
          <li>Creating a new table and writing data into it:
            <pre>Database db = Database.create(new File("new.mdb"));
Column a = new Column();
a.setName("a");
a.setSQLType(Types.INTEGER);
Column b = new Column();
b.setName("b");
b.setSQLType(Types.VARCHAR);
db.createTable("NewTable", Arrays.asList(a, b));
Table newTable = db.getTable("NewTable");
newTable.addRow(new Object[] {1, "foo"});</pre>
          </li>
          <li>Copying the contents of a JDBC ResultSet (e.g. from an
external database) into a new table:
            <pre>Database.open(new File("my.mdb")).copyTable("Imported", resultSet);</pre>
          </li>
          <li>Copying the contents of a CSV file into a new table:
            <pre>Database.open(new File("my.mdb")).importFile("Imported2", new File("my.csv"), ",");</pre>
          </li>
