There are many benefits to using markdown in Git!

• It makes your submissions easier to read and understand.
• It seperates questions and answers clearly to avoid confusion.

You can also create ordered and unordered lists!

1. Ordered lists are simply numbered

• Bullet points are creates with the asteriks (*)

There are also a few more very important markdown tricks!

1. You can make words bold with either two asteriks ( ** ) before and after the work or double underscores on either side ( __ )
2. You can also make words italic with the use of a single asteriks ( * ) or a single underscore ( _ ) on either side.
3. Code block is essential to properly formating your git hub gists. With the use a a back-tick on either end of a code snippet it makes it readable. Without the back-ticks your code snippet is simply ommmitted in your text. <h1> < this snippet is surrounded by those back-ticks.
4. Inline code is also surrounded by back-ticks! It will look like this ..

You can also add images to your mardown text by adding the following code:

![alt text] (insert link here) "describe image here"
