Conventions used

There are several 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/X handles. Here is an example: “Instantiate a tokenizer of the bert-base-cased type.”

A block of code is set as follows:

from transformers import pipeline
import torch

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

from transformers import T5Tokenizer, T5ForConditionalGeneration
import torch
device = torch.device("cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu")

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

Classification Results
{'accuracy': 0.88,
'precision': 0.92,
'recall': 0.84}

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: “Select System info from the Administration panel.”
