Provide more useful documentation of conversion methods

I thought that the documentation for these methods needed to be a bit more explanatory for new users. For advanced users, the comments are relatively unnecessary. I think it would be useful to explain precisely what the method does. As a new user, when you see the `into` method, where the type is inferred, if you are new you don't even know what you convert to, because it is implicit. I believe this can help new users understand.
