APA 7 formatting is simple and fast and easier to read; that's why it's preferred by so many academics. 

This article guides you through how to reference for your assignment using APA 7, with examples to help you format your in-text citations and reference list. APA 7 is an author-date style, meaning in-text citations (author, year) are used to acknowledge the author(s) of ideas and quotes you have included in the body of your assignment. The details of these citations are then included in a reference list, organised alphabetically, at the end of your assignment.
