Which citation style are we using in this class?

IEEE 

What's the difference between these style and others?

Most publishers have their own style guide that they require authors to use. No style is better than any other style even though they often handle citations and document formatting a little bit differently. Your instructor has chosen to use this style because it suits the type of document you are writing.

References cited in the text appear on the line, in square brackets, inside the punctuation. Grammatically, they may be treated as if they were footnote numbers or as nouns. NOTE: Use et al. when three or more names are given for a reference cited in the text. 

Examples:

as shown by Brown [4], [5]; as mentioned earlier [2], [4]–[7], [9]; Smith [4] and Brown and Jones [5]; Wood et al. [7]

as demonstrated in [3]; according to [4] and [6]–[9].
