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 parent Mortgage class has a set of properties, such as Customer Name and Loan Status, which is now inherited by the Mortgage Application class”.
A block of code is set as follows:
defVar --name i --type Numeric --value 0
defVar --name lenOfString --type Numeric
defVar --name stringToReverse --type String --value 0123456789
defVar --name reversedString --type String
defVar --name character --type String
getStringLength --text "${stringToReverse}" lenOfString=value
Any command-line input or output is written as follows:
3/12/2022 4:57:39 AM - [Info] Name = John Smith 3/12/2022 4:57:39 AM - [Info] Address = 123 Main St, Poughkeepsie, NY 12601, USA 3/12/2022 4:57:39 AM - [Info] Address = jsmith@acme.com
