 		An Animation resource contains data used to animate everything in the engine. Animations are divided into tracks, and each track must be linked to a node. The state of that node can be changed through time, by adding timed keys (events) to the track.
-		Animations are just data containers, and must be added to odes such as an [AnimationPlayer] or [AnimationTreePlayer] to be played back.

+		# This creates an animation that makes the node "Enemy" move to the right by
+		# 100 pixels in 1 second. 
+		var animation = Animation.new()
+		var track_index = animation.add_track(Animation.TYPE_VALUE)
+		animation.track_set_path(track_index, "Enemy:position.x")
+		animation.track_insert_key(track_index, 0.0, 0)
+		animation.track_insert_key(track_index, 0.5, 100)
