# Body - Nested Models

With **FastAPI**, you can define, validate, document, and use arbitrarily deeply nested models (thanks to Pydantic).

## List fields

You can define an attribute to be a subtype. For example, a Python `list`:

=== "Python 3.10+"

    ```Python hl_lines="12"
    {!> ../../../docs_src/body_nested_models/tutorial001_py310.py!}
    ```

=== "Python 3.8+"

    ```Python hl_lines="14"

labels: [question]
body:
  - type: markdown
    attributes:
      value: |
        Thanks for your interest in FastAPI! 🚀

        Please follow these instructions, fill every question, and do every step. 🙏

        I'm asking this because answering questions and solving problems in GitHub is what consumes most of the time.

      addInitialException(seenExceptionsLocal);

  /**
   * Returns an entry with a key less than the keys of the {@link #samples()} and less than the key
   * of {@link #belowSamplesGreater()}.
   */
  Entry<K, V> belowSamplesLesser();

   * key of {@link #belowSamplesLesser()}.
   */
  Entry<K, V> belowSamplesGreater();

`STANDARD` storage class implies more parity than `REDUCED_REDUNDANCY` class. So, `STANDARD` parity drives should be

- Greater than or equal to 2, if `REDUCED_REDUNDANCY` parity is not set.
- Greater than `REDUCED_REDUNDANCY` parity, if it is set.

Parity blocks can not be higher than data blocks, so `STANDARD` storage class parity can not be higher than N/2. (N being total number of drives)

  /**
   * Returns an element less than the {@link #samples()} and less than {@link
   * #belowSamplesGreater()}.
   */
  E belowSamplesLesser();

  /**
   * Returns an element less than the {@link #samples()} but greater than {@link
   * #belowSamplesLesser()}.
   */
  E belowSamplesGreater();

  /**
   * Returns an element greater than the {@link #samples()} but less than {@link
   * #aboveSamplesGreater()}.
   */

  /**
   * Returns an element less than the {@link #samples()} and less than {@link
   * #belowSamplesGreater()}.
   */
  E belowSamplesLesser();

  /**
   * Returns an element less than the {@link #samples()} but greater than {@link
   * #belowSamplesLesser()}.
   */
  E belowSamplesGreater();

  /**
   * Returns an element greater than the {@link #samples()} but less than {@link
   * #aboveSamplesGreater()}.
   */

    ```

## Number validations: floats, greater than and less than

Number validations also work for `float` values.

Here's where it becomes important to be able to declare <abbr title="greater than"><code>gt</code></abbr> and not just <abbr title="greater than or equal"><code>ge</code></abbr>. As with it you can require, for example, that a value must be greater than `0`, even if it is less than `1`.
