| 25 | Welcome | |
| 26 | ------- | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | Welcome to the Boost libraries! By the time you've completed this | |
| 29 | tutorial, you'll be at least somewhat comfortable with the contents | |
| 30 | of a Boost distribution and how to go about using it. | |
| 31 | ||
| 32 | What's Here | |
| 33 | ----------- | |
| 34 | ||
| 35 | This document is designed to be an *extremely* gentle introduction, | |
| 36 | so we included a fair amount of material that may already be very | |
| 37 | familiar to you. To keep things simple, we also left out some | |
| 38 | information intermediate and advanced users will probably want. At | |
| 39 | the end of this document, we'll refer you on to resources that can | |
| 40 | help you pursue these topics further. | |
| 41 | ||
| 42 | Preliminaries | |
| 43 | ------------- | |
| 44 | ||
| 45 | We use one typographic convention that might not be immediately | |
| 46 | obvious: *italic* text in examples is meant as a descriptive | |
| 47 | placeholder for something else, usually information that you'll | |
| 48 | provide. For example: | |
| 49 | ||
| 50 | .. parsed-literal:: | |
| 51 | ||
| 52 | **$** echo "My name is *your name*\ " | |
| 53 | ||
| 54 | Here you're expected to imagine replacing the text “your name” with | |
| 55 | your actual name. | |
| 56 | ||
| 57 | Ready? | |
| 58 | ------ | |
| 59 | ||
| 60 | Let's go! | |
