Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

CodeInText: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, path names, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "Let's take a look at a sample interaction, using requests to pull down data from GitHub's API. Here, we will make a call to the API and request a list of starred repositories for a user."

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

import requests 
 
r = requests.get(r"https://api.github.com/users/acombs/starred") 
 
r.json() 

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "For Chrome, go to the Google app store and look for the Extensions section."
