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, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "The example is called BeginningAzureServerlessArchitecture, so all code snippets will refer to that namespace."

A block of code is set as follows:

{
Amount: 47.32,
ExecutionTime: "2018-01-01T09:00:00Z"
}

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

class Transaction
{
public DateTime ExecutionTime { get; set; }
public Decimal Amount { get; set; }
}

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: "Right-click on your project and select Publish. Select Create New Azure Function App."

Activity: These are scenario-based activities that will let you practically apply what you've learned over the course of a complete section. They are typically in the context of a real-world problem or situation.
