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: “Let’s dive a bit deeper and see what a general implementation of the Result type looks like.”

A block of code is set as follows:

bool IsBookPopular(Book book)
{
    if (book.AverageRating > 4.5 && book.NumberOfReviews > 1000)
    {
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}

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: “Refactor it using Railway-Oriented Programming (ROP) to improve the error-handling flow.”
