Readme Markdown SyntaxMarkdown is a syntax for styling all forms of writing on the GitHub platform.
Mostly, it is just regular text with a few non-alphabetic characters thrown in, like ```git # or * ```You can use Markdown most places around GitHub:
1. Gists
2. Comments in Issues and Pull Requests
3. Files with the .md or .markdown extension___

```git
[My GitHub][GitHubLink]
```
[My GitHub][GitHubLink]You may define your link label anywhere in the document.
```git
e.g. put on bottom:--------------------------------
[GitHubLink]:https://github.com/darsaveli
```### Links to the URLs in a repository
```git
[Example document](/example/example.md)
```[Example document](/example/example.md)
```git
[example](./example)
```[example](./example)

### Inserting Images or Gifs using links
```git
![alt](URL "title")
```- alt in square bracket indicates the replacement text when the image fails to display (can be omitted)
- parenthesis contains image source
- title in quotes indicates the text to display when the mouse hovers over the image (can be omitted)Nite: Dropping the image to the readme file will upload it automatically with this syntax;
It's the same as links, but add an exlamation mark (!) before opening square bracket;
Image source can be either a location from the local machine or any valid image URL;>Example
```git
![Octocat](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/81953271/124010886-b571ca80-d9df-11eb-86ac-b358c48ac6aa.png "Github logo")
```

```
```You can use HTML tags like width="385px", hight="876px", align="center", etc depending what you need. In this case this gif was once uploaded to the repository and the link was taken from there.
Other options to resize:
- `![](https:// link | width=100)`___
### Linking Image/Gif
To open another webpage when image is clicked, enclose the Markdown for the image in brackets, and then add the link in parentheses.```

### Tables
```git
|Header1|Header2|Header3|
| --- | --- | --- |
| This | is a | table |
| This | is 2nd | row |
| This | is 3rd | row |
```|Header1|Header2|Header3|
| --- | --- | --- |
| This | is a | table |
| This | is 2nd | row |
| This | is 3rd | row |### Align
You may specify alignment like this:
```git
| Align left | Centered | Align right |
| :------------ |:---------------:| -----:|
| col 3 is | some wordy text | $1600 |
```
| Align left | Centered | Align right |
| :------------ |:---------------:| -----:|
| aaa | bbb | ccc |p.s. You can use alignment with `
your text
` tags or with `your text
` tag to align plain text.
___### CheckBox
```git
* [ ] Checkbox1* [ ] Checkbox2
* [x] Checkbox selected
```* [ ] Checkbox1
* [ ] Checkbox2
* [x] Checkbox selected
You may use this syntax in GitHub's issue to check or uncheck the checkbox in real time without having to modify the original version of the issue.

### Quoting Text
```git
> This is a block quoted text
```> This is a block quoted text
### Multi-level blockquotes
```
> Asia
>> China
>>> Beijing
>>>> Haidian
>>>>> Tsinghua
```
#### Look like
> Asia
>> China
>>> Beijing
>>>> Haidian
>>>>> Tsinghua* These are fenced code blocks
___
### Text highlighting
```git
`linux` `ubuntu`
```
Using a pair of backquotes is suitable for making tags for articles
`linux` `ubuntu`___
### Horizontal Line
```git
***
___
---
```All three will be rendered as:
___
p.s.
```git
works too
```
___### Break between lines
```git
```
___### Visible markdown characters
```git
```git
* __
etc ```
```
___### Multi-line text
aaa,
sss,
ddd!Add 1 tab or 4 spaces at the beginning of several lines of text.
OR
Use three backticks:
```
asd,
sfd,
wer!
```
This syntax can also be used for code highlighting___
### Comments in Markdown
```git
```
They will be invisible on readme
___### Emoji
```git
:grinning: or just place the emoji 😀
```
:grinning: or just place the emoji 😀To see a list of every image Github supports, check out the [Emoji Cheat Sheet](https://github.com/ikatyang/emoji-cheat-sheet/blob/master/README.md)
___
### Code Block
There are three ways to add code in markdown
1. Inline Code (single backtick)
2. Whitespace```git
`this` is an example of inline code.
```
four spaces work too!
3. Fenced code blocks
With GFM you can wrap your code with three back quotes to create a code block without the leading spaces. Add annoptional language identifier and your code will get syntax highlighting.```Java
public static void main(String[]args){} //Java
``````javascript
document.getElementById("myH1").innerHTML="Welcome to my Homepage"; //javascipt
```___
### Syntax Highlighting
If language name is mentioned after the end of first set of backticks, the code snippet will be highlighted according to the language.```js
console.log('javascript')
```
```python
print('python')
```
```java
System.out.println('java')
```
```json
{
"firstName": "A",
"lastName": "B
"age": 18
}
``````js
console.log('javascript')
``````python
print('python')
``````java
System.out.println('java')
``````json
{
"firstName": "A",
"lastName": "B",
"age": 18
}
```
___### diff syntax
In the version control system, the function of diff is indispensable, i.e., the addition and deletion of a file content is displayed.
The diff effect that can be displayed in GFM. Green is for new, while red is for deleted.
#### Syntax
The syntax is similar to code [fenced code blocks](#fenced-code-blocks), except that the diff is written after the three backticks.
And in the content, the beginning of `+ ` indicates the addition, and the beginning of `- ` indicates the deletion.```diff
+ Hello world!
- This is useless.
```___
### Use YAML: human friendly data serialization language for all programming languages
```yaml
name: Mariam
located_in: ***
from: ***
education: ***
job: ***
company: ***
```
___### Anchor
In fact, each title is an anchor, similar to the HTML anchor (`#`), e.g.|Syntax|Look like|
|---|---|
|`[Back to top](#readme)`|[Back to top](#readme)|Note that all the letters in the title are converted to **lowercase letters**.
___
### Render mathematical expressions in Markdown
You can now use LaTeX style syntax to render math expressions within Markdown inline (using $ delimiters) or in blocks (using $$ delimiters).
Writing expressions as blocks
To add math as a multiline block displayed separately from surrounding text, start a new line and delimit the expression with two dollar symbols $$.$$\left( \sum_{k=1}^n a_k b_k \right)^2 \leq \left( \sum_{k=1}^n a_k^2 \right) \left( \sum_{k=1}^n b_k^2 \right)$$
```git
$$\left( \sum_{k=1}^n a_k b_k \right)^2 \leq \left( \sum_{k=1}^n a_k^2 \right) \left( \sum_{k=1}^n b_k^2 \right)$$
```
## Writing inline expressions
To include a math expression inline with your text, delimit the expression with a dollar symbol $.This sentence uses `$` delimiters to show math inline: $\sqrt{3x-1}+(1+x)^2$
```git
This sentence uses `$` delimiters to show math inline: $\sqrt{3x-1}+(1+x)^2$
