 ## The 100% Coverage Use-Case
 
 Shooting for 100% coverage is usually criticized as unnecessary and

 code coverage in percentage points goes, 100% is the only reasonable target:
 any other percent-based target flaps around when SLOCs are added or removed.

+## Using ignores

+Ignores in chaps are just about the same as they are in ExCoveralls:

+```elixir
+# this piece of code is so hard to get meaningful coverage on that it's
+# not worth our time, let's skip it

 ## Differences from `parroty/excoveralls`
 
 - Coverage is truncated to the tenths place instead of rounded
+    - this enforces that for even very large projects, 100% coverage means
+      **all** SLOCs are covered, not just approximately all SLOCs
 - Tasks and dependencies for uploading coverage reports have been removed
     - the `:hackney` dependency has been removed
 - Configuration is done in `config/test.exs` instead of a JSON file
