Conventions

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

Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "For example, an administration setting named local_duallang/primarylanguage is accessed by calling get_config('local_duallang', 'primarylanguage')."

A block of code is set as follows:

var col_complete = completion_data.colors.completed_colour; 
var col_incomplete = completion_data.colors.notCompleted_colour;
var col_submitted = completion_data.colors.submittednotcomplete_colour;
var col_failed = completion_data.colors.futureNotCompleted_colour;

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

$repeatarray[] = $mform->createElement('text', 'option', get_string('optionno', 'choice')); 
with
$repeatarray[] = $mform->createElement('editor', 'option', get_string('option','enhancedchoice'), null, array('maxfiles'=>EDITOR_UNLIMITED_FILES, 'noclean'=>true, 'context'=>$this->context));

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, for example, in menus or dialog boxes, appear in the text like this: "When the learner clicks on the Description button, the client wants a Course information page to be displayed."

Warnings or important notes appear in a box like this.
Tips and tricks appear like this.
