Definition
Such as introduces one or more examples that are included in (or representative of) a category or type just mentioned.
'Sports such as football and tennis require teamwork.' (football and tennis are examples of sports)
'I enjoy classic literature, such as Shakespeare and Dickens.'
Such as means the examples ARE included in the category — it is not just a comparison.
