 arrays and subdocuments (objects). If you specify an `_id` field, it
 will be used as the document's _id, otherwise nedb will generate one.

 ### Updating documents
 `db.update(query, update, options, callback)` will update all documents matching `query` according to the `update` rules:  
 * `query` is the same kind of finding query you use with `find` and `findOne`
-* `update` specifies how the documents should be modified. It is either:
-  * A new document which will replace the matched ones
-  * A set of modifiers. The available modifiers are `$set` to change a field's value and `$inc` to increment a field's value. You cannot use mixed updates with both modes (that doesn't make sense anyway)

+  * The available modifiers are `$set` to change a field's value and `$inc` to increment a field's value. The modifiers create the fields they need to modify if they don't exist, and you can apply them to subdocs (see examples below)
 * `options` is an object with two possible parameters
   * `multi` (defaults to `false`) which allows the modification of several documents if set to true
   * `upsert` (defaults to `false`) if you want to insert a new document corresponding to the `update` rules if your `query` doesn't match anything
