There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

A block of code is set as follows:
val spark = SparkSession
.builder
.appName("StructuredNetworkWordCount")
.master(master)
.getOrCreate()
When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

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

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."
