PHP-Internals-Book

Document format: RST

The book is written using ReStructured Text and generated using Sphinx.

• RST manual: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html
• RST quickref: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/rst/quickref.html
• Sphinx manual: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/

Coding style

The following "coding style" applies to the written text, not to the included code.

• The maximum line-width for text is 120 characters.
• The maximum line-width for code is 98 characters. Including the four space indentation this would be a limit of 102 characters. This is a hard limit that prevents overflows in the PDF version.
• Indentation uses four spaces.
• Lines should not have trailing whitespace.
• Punctuation like ?, ! or : should directly follow after the word (e.g. foo: rather than foo :).
