For example, there's an official <a href="https://hub.docker.com/_/python" class="external-link" target="_blank">Python Image</a>.

And there are many other images for different things like databases, for example for:

     * <p>In the current implementation, all values associated with a given key are stored in the
     * {@code Builder} object, even though only one of them will be used in the built map. If there
     * can be many repeated keys, it may be more space-efficient to use a {@link
     * java.util.LinkedHashMap LinkedHashMap} and {@link ImmutableMap#copyOf(Map)} rather than
     * {@code ImmutableMap.Builder}.

So, you import `Query`, which is a function. And when you call it, it returns an instance of a class also named `Query`.

These functions are there (instead of just using the classes directly) so that your editor doesn't mark errors about their types.

That way you can use your normal editor and coding tools without having to add custom configurations to disregard those errors.

/**
 * There are hundreds of error codes that may be returned by a CIFS
 * server. Rather than represent each with it's own <code>Exception</code>
 * class, this class represents all of them. For many of the popular
 * error codes, constants and text messages like "The device is not ready"
 * are provided.
 * <p>
 * The jCIFS client maps DOS error codes to NTSTATUS codes. This means that

This means that you can send only the data that you want to update, leaving the rest intact.

/// note

`PATCH` is less commonly used and known than `PUT`.

And many teams use only `PUT`, even for partial updates.

You are **free** to use them however you want, **FastAPI** doesn't impose any restrictions.

But this guide shows you, more or less, how they are intended to be used.
