Pagination
==========
Requests that return multiple items will be paginated to 10 items by default. Further pages
can be requested with the `?page` query parameter. You can set a custom per-page amount
with the `?per_page` parameter. There is an unspecified limit to how big you can set
`per_page` to, so be sure to always check for the `Link` header.
Pagination information is provided in the [Link header](http://www.w3.org/Protocols/9707-link-header.html):
Link: </courses/:id/discussion_topics.json?page=2&per_page=10>; rel="next",</courses/:id/discussion_topics.json?page=1&per_page=10>; rel="first",</courses/:id/discussion_topics.json?page=5&per_page=10>; rel="last"
The possible `rel` values are:
* next - link to the next page of results. None is sent if there is no next page.
* prev - link to the previous page of results. None is sent if there is no previous page.
* first - link to the first page of results. None is sent if there are no pages.
* last - link to the last page of results. None is sent if there are no pages.
