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: "For this example, we will use the BeautifulSoup library version 4."

A block of code is set as follows:

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import urllib.request
from time import sleep
from datetime import datetime

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

>>> [e-mail]
>>> readers
>>> packt.com

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: "Now, just click on the OK button to apply the transformation."
