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 start creating the PlayerTankController class by setting up the Start function and the Update function in the PlayerTankController.cs file."

A block of code is set as follows:

public class PlayerTankController : MonoBehaviour { 
    public GameObject Bullet; 
    public GameObject Turret; 
    public GameObject bulletSpawnPoint;

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

// ... 
    private AudioSource m_ExplosionAudio  
    private ParticleSystem m_ExplosionParticles 
    private float m_CurrentHealth; 
    private bool m_Dead; 
    public float CurrentHealth { get; } 
    // ...

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

git clone --branch release_19 https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/ml-agents.git

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: "If you play the scene and click on the Pull Lever button, you should see the final result."
