Markdown Cheat Sheet

Here is a quick-reference cheat sheet for standard Markdown syntax.

Basic Formatting

Use # for headings. The number of hashes dictates the heading level (1-6).

# Heading 1
## Heading 2
### Heading 3
#### Heading 4

Use -, *, or + for bullet points. Add spaces to indent for nested lists.

- Item 1
- Item 2
  - Sub-item A
  - Sub-item B

Use numbers followed by periods.

1. First item
2. Second item
   1. Nested first item

- [x] Completed task
- [ ] Incomplete task

Use > to create a blockquote.

> This is a blockquote.
>> This is a nested blockquote.

Use three or more dashes, asterisks, or underscores on a new line to create a divider.

Use three backticks (`````) to create a code block. You can specify the language right after the first set of backticks for syntax highlighting.

```python
def hello_world():
    print("Hello, Markdown!")

Use pipes (|) to separate columns and hyphens (-) to create the header row. Use colons (:) in the header row to align text.

| Left Align | Center Align | Right Align |

| Text | Text | Text |
