Code Blocks

Inline Code

Inline code is a simple way to highlight a word or phrase as code. To format text as inline code, wrap the word or phrase in back ticks (`).

You can write inline code like this: word or phrase.

Markdown code

`word` or `phrase`

Inline code is great for small snippets, filenames, commands, or code elements that are part of a larger sentence.

Code blocks

For larger chunks of code, markdown provides fenced code blocks. These blocks allow you to include multi-line code snippets, optionally with syntax highlighting for various programming languages.

To create a code block, enclose the code in three back ticks (``` ). Here's an example:

class HelloWorld {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello, World!");
    }
}

```java
class HelloWorld {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello, World!");
    }
}
```

You can add an optional title or description after the language name to provide context about the code snippet.

Tips for using Code blocks

• Always specify the language for better readability with syntax highlighting.
• Use inline code for short snippets and fenced blocks for larger code.
• When including sensitive information (e.g., API keys), avoid publishing code blocks with actual data.
