In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "This will download a compressed package containing all of the files for the block called myCourses.zip."

A block of code is set as follows:

if (!defined('FRONTPAGECOURSELIMIT')) {
define('FRONTPAGECOURSELIMIT',    200);

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "Select your language and click on the Next button found at the bottom of the screen."
