Hands-On Software Engineering with Python

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: "Within the src directory is the package tree for the project."

A block of code is set as follows:

def SetNodeResource(x, y, z, r, v): n = get_node(x,y) n.z = z n.resources.add(r, v)

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

def __private_method(self, arg, *args, **kwargs): print('%s.__private_method called:' % self.__class__.__name__) print('+- arg ...... %s' % arg) print('+- args ..... %s' % str(args)) ...
