/// info

`Form` is a class that inherits directly from `Body`.

///

/// tip

To declare form bodies, you need to use `Form` explicitly, because without it the parameters would be interpreted as query parameters or body (JSON) parameters.

## About "Form Fields" { #about-form-fields }

You can write [Markdown](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown) in the docstring, it will be interpreted and displayed correctly (taking into account docstring indentation).

{* ../../docs_src/path_operation_configuration/tutorial004_py310.py hl[17:25] *}

It will be used in the interactive docs:

* If the parameter is of a **singular type** (like `int`, `float`, `str`, `bool`, etc) it will be interpreted as a **query** parameter.
* If the parameter is declared to be of the type of a **Pydantic model**, it will be interpreted as a request **body**.

/// note

FastAPI will know that the value of `q` is not required because of the default value `= None`.

# Query Parameters { #query-parameters }

When you declare other function parameters that are not part of the path parameters, they are automatically interpreted as "query" parameters.

{* ../../docs_src/query_params/tutorial001_py310.py hl[9] *}

The query is the set of key-value pairs that go after the `?` in a URL, separated by `&` characters.

For example, in the URL:

```
http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/?skip=0&limit=10
```

///

/// tip

To declare File bodies, you need to use `File`, because otherwise the parameters would be interpreted as query parameters or body (JSON) parameters.

///

The files will be uploaded as "form data".

    int length = end - start;
    if (length <= 0 || length > 3) {
      throw new NumberFormatException();
    }
    // Disallow leading zeroes, because no clear standard exists on
    // whether these should be interpreted as decimal or octal.
    if (length > 1 && ipString.charAt(start) == '0') {
      throw new NumberFormatException();
    }
    int octet = 0;
    for (int i = start; i < end; i++) {
      octet *= 10;

{
  "q": [
    "foo",
    "bar"
  ]
}
```

/// tip

To declare a query parameter with a type of `list`, like in the example above, you need to explicitly use `Query`, otherwise it would be interpreted as a request body.

///

The interactive API docs will update accordingly, to allow multiple values:

		return s[:len(s)-len(suffix)]
	}
	return s
}

// IndexFunc interprets s as a sequence of UTF-8-encoded code points.
// It returns the byte index in s of the first Unicode
// code point satisfying f(c), or -1 if none do.
func IndexFunc(s []byte, f func(r rune) bool) int {
	return indexFunc(s, f, true)
}

// LastIndexFunc interprets s as a sequence of UTF-8-encoded code points.

Interpreted string literals are character sequences between double
quotes, as in <code>&quot;bar&quot;</code>.
Within the quotes, any character may appear except newline and unescaped double quote.
The text between the quotes forms the
value of the literal, with backslash escapes interpreted as they
