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: "You can observe in the code that a quantum circuit operation is being defined and a variable called numOnes
."
A block of code is set as follows:
#include "llvm/IR/IRPrintingPasses.h" #include "llvm/IR/LegacyPassManager.h" #include "llvm/Support/ToolOutputFile.h"
When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:
switch (Kind) { // Many more cases case m88k: return "m88k"; }
Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "Select System info from the Administration panel."
