`Cookie` is a "sister" class of `Path` and `Query`. It also inherits from the same common `Param` class.

But remember that when you import `Query`, `Path`, `Cookie` and others from `fastapi`, those are actually functions that return special classes.

///

/// info

To declare cookies, you need to use `Cookie`, because otherwise the parameters would be interpreted as query parameters.

## Recap { #recap }

/// note | Technical Details

When you import `Query`, `Path` and others from `fastapi`, they are actually functions.

That when called, return instances of classes of the same name.

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.

# Reference

Here's the reference or code API, the classes, functions, parameters, attributes, and
all the FastAPI parts you can use in your applications.

If you want to **learn FastAPI** you are much better off reading the

  /**
   * A strategy to translate T instances, to {@code numHashFunctions} bit indexes.
   *
   * <p>Implementations should be collections of pure functions (i.e. stateless).
   */
  interface Strategy extends java.io.Serializable {

    /**
     * Sets {@code numHashFunctions} bits of the given bit array, by hashing a user element.
     *

But then we get a `dict` in the parameter `commons` of the *path operation function*.

And we know that editors can't provide a lot of support (like completion) for `dict`s, because they can't know their keys and value types.

We can do better...

## What makes a dependency { #what-makes-a-dependency }

Up to now you have seen dependencies declared as functions.

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