Markdown Syntax Simplified#

Markdown is a lightweight markup language that can be written using a simple text editor. It is known for its readability and ease of writing. Here are some commonly used Markdown syntax:

Headings
Insert one or more # symbols at the beginning of a line to indicate a heading. The number of # symbols represents the heading level, with 1-6 # symbols used for levels 1-6.

Example:

Heading 1#

Heading 2#

Heading 3#

Heading 4#

Heading 5#

Heading 6

Lists
Use * or - symbols for unordered lists, and numbers followed by a period for ordered lists. There should be one or more spaces between the list item and the symbol.

Example:

Unordered list item 1
Unordered list item 2
Unordered list item 3

Ordered list item 1
Ordered list item 2
Ordered list item 3

Bold and Italic
Text wrapped in ** will be displayed in bold, and text wrapped in * will be displayed in italic.

Example:

This is bold text
This is italic text

Links and Images
Use link text for links, and ![image description](image URL) for images.

Example:

Google
Image description

Blockquotes
Use the > symbol at the beginning of a line to indicate a blockquote.

Example:

This is a blockquote.
This is the second line of the blockquote.

Code Blocks
Use backticks (`) to indicate short code blocks, and three backticks (```) to indicate long code blocks.

Example:

print("Hello, world!")

def greet(name):
    print("Hello, " + name + "!")

greet("Alice")
greet("Bob")

These are some basic Markdown syntax that you can use to create beautiful documents.
