| 19 | <p>Welcome to the Boost libraries! By the time you've completed this |
|---|
| 20 | tutorial, you'll be at least somewhat comfortable with the contents |
|---|
| 21 | of a Boost distribution and how to go about using it.</p> |

| 24 | <h1>What's Here</h1> |
|---|
| 25 | <p>This document is designed to be an <em>extremely</em> gentle introduction, |
|---|
| 26 | so we included a fair amount of material that may already be very |
|---|
| 27 | familiar to you. To keep things simple, we also left out some |
|---|
| 28 | information intermediate and advanced users will probably want. At |
|---|
| 29 | the end of this document, we'll refer you on to resources that can |
|---|
| 30 | help you pursue these topics further.</p> |

| 33 | <h1>Preliminaries</h1> |
|---|
| 34 | <p>We use one typographic convention that might not be immediately |
|---|
| 35 | obvious: <em>italic</em> text in examples is meant as a descriptive |
|---|
| 36 | placeholder for something else, usually information that you'll |
|---|
| 37 | provide. For example:</p> |
|---|
| 38 | <pre class="literal-block"> |
|---|
| 39 | <strong>$</strong> echo "My name is <em>your name</em>" |
|---|
| 40 | </pre> |
|---|
| 41 | <p>Here you're expected to imagine replacing the text “your name” with |
|---|
| 42 | your actual name.</p> |
