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: “The provider looks for ConfidentialAttribute to decide whether it can provide.”

A block of code is set as follows:

namespace Fundamentals.Compliance;
public interface ICanProvideComplianceMetadataForType
{
 bool CanProvide(Type type);
 ComplianceMetadata Provide(Type type);
}

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

Checking type for compliance rules: Chapter11.Patient
Property: FirstName - Employment records
Property: LastName - Employment records
Property: SocialSecurityNumber - Uniquely identifies the employee
Property JournalEntries is a collection of type Chapter11.JournalEntry with type level metadata

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For instance, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in bold. Here is an example: “Then select JSON in the Body tab, add an empty JSON document, and click Send.”
