+/// Copies the entire contents of a reader into a writer.
+///
+/// This function will continuously read data from `reader` and then
+/// write it into `writer` in a streaming fashion until `reader`
+/// returns EOF.
+///
+/// On success, the total number of bytes that were copied from
+/// `reader` to `writer` is returned.
+///
+/// If you’re wanting to copy the contents of one file to another and you’re
+/// working with filesystem paths, see the [`fs::copy`] function.
+///
+/// This function is an async version of [`std::io::copy`].
+///
+/// [`std::io::copy`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/io/fn.copy.html
+/// [`fs::copy`]: ../fs/fn.copy.html
+///
+/// # Errors
+///
+/// This function will return an error immediately if any call to `read` or
+/// `write` returns an error. All instances of `ErrorKind::Interrupted` are
+/// handled by this function and the underlying operation is retried.
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// ```
+/// # fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> { async_std::task::block_on(async {
+/// #
+/// use async_std::io;
+///
+/// let mut reader: &[u8] = b"hello";
+/// let mut writer = io::stdout();
+///
+/// io::copy(&mut reader, &mut writer).await?;
+/// #
+/// # Ok(()) }) }
