Conventions

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

Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "Open the gephi.conf file and, in the default options, change the -J-Xmx512m value to -J-Xmx1024m."

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, for example, in menus or dialog boxes, appear in the text like this: "The upper-left corner on the screen has three tabs namely Overview, Data Laboratory, and Preview, which represent the three modes present in Gephi for network manipulation."
