Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "We can include other contexts through the use of the include directive."

A block of code is set as follows:

class foo:
    """
    Documentation of the class.
    It can be multiline and contain any amount of text
    """
    @classmethod
    def bar(self, first=0, second=0):
        """This is the documentation for the method"""
        return first + second

print(foo.bar())

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

python manage.py schemamigration south2ptvs –-initial

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "Clicking on the Next button moves you to the next screen."
