Wordpress Codes?

As I'm looking through the documentation for a theme I bought, it has an example of how their home page is built and it is full of things like:

[clear]

[/one_half]

[five_sixth_last]

etc. Can such things as these be used to build a Wordpress page to be custom and unique? Where can I learn more about this?

    No, that's NOT WordPress code.

    It could, however, be some specific "shortcode" that is defined in the functions.php or an included library. (Many plugins also have similar shortcode that users have to copy/paste into the posts or Pages...)

    Edit. The basic building blogs of the template files are called Template Tags. You can learn about building themes here (and follow the links).

      Yes, those are shortcodes.

      The theme you purchased should contain some documentation on how to use those. I can tell you by looking at the names they control the width of certain content.
