a) Sections and subsections

The titles of the sections will be presented in bold, numbered with Arabic numerals, and separated by two lines of the previous text and by a line of the following text. As for the titles of the subsections, they will be written in bold and will be numbered again (eg, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3), and must be separated by a line both of the preceding text and of the subsequent text. The following levels, which should be avoided as much as possible, will also be numbered with Arabic numerals and will be written in a common text (eg, 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.1.1., 1.1.1.2.).
