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: “In our second example, we have two functions, main() and reverseString(). main() takes nothing in its input.”
A block of code is set as follows:
fun main() {
val stringToBeReversed = "Community"
println(reverseString(stringToBeReversed))
}
fun reverseString(stringToReverse: String): String {
return stringToReverse.reversed()
}
When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:
data class City( val id: Int, @StringRes val nameResourceId: Int, @DrawableRes val imageResourceId: Int )
Any command-line input or output is written as follows:
$ git clone [email protected]:PacktPublishing/Modern-Android-13-Development-Cookbook.git
Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see on screen. For instance, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in bold. Here is an example: “Click Finish and wait for Gradle to sync.”
