Conventions used

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

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: “In the System Message, type in the following: You are an assistant that creates marketing slogans.”

A block of code is set as follows:

{
  "model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
  "messages": [
    {
      "role": "system",
      "content": "You are an assistant that creates marketing slogans based on descriptions of companies"
    }

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

                "role": "assistant",
                "content": "Thank you for your kind words! Vanilla is always a classic favorite. 😊🍦"
            },

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

Donald Trump's presidency showcased divisive politics and tumultuous events.

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: “After you have successfully logged in, navigate to Profile in the top right-hand menu, select Personal.”
