The Try It Out is an exercise you should work through, following the text in the book.

They usually consist of a set of steps.

As for styles in the text:
-
We highlight new terms and important words when we introduce them.

We show keyboard strokes like this: Ctrl+A.
-
We show file names, URLs, and code within the text like so: persistence.properties.

We present code in two different ways:
In code examples we highlight new and important code with a gray background. The gray highlighting is not used for code that's less important in the present context, or has been shown before.
