6Let's get the whole "linebreak" thing out of the way. The next paragraph contains two phrases separated by a single newline character:
7
8Roses are red
9Violets are blue
10
11The next paragraph has the same phrases, but now they are separated by two spaces and a newline character:
12
13Roses are red
14Violets are blue
15
16Oh, and one thing I cannot stand is the mangling of words with multiple underscores in them like perform_complicated_task or do_this_and_do_that_and_another_thing.

18A bit of the GitHub spice
19-------------------------
20
21In addition to the changes in the previous section, certain references are auto-linked:
22
23* SHA: be6a8cc1c1ecfe9489fb51e4869af15a13fc2cd2
24* User@SHA ref: mojombo@be6a8cc1c1ecfe9489fb51e4869af15a13fc2cd2
25* User/Project@SHA: mojombo/god@be6a8cc1c1ecfe9489fb51e4869af15a13fc2cd2
26* \#Num: #1
27* User/#Num: mojombo#1
28* User/Project#Num: mojombo/god#1
29
30These are dangerous goodies though, and we need to make sure email addresses don't get mangled:
31
32My email addy is tom@github.com.

34Math is hard, let's go shopping
35-------------------------------
36
37In first grade I learned that 5 > 3 and 2 < 7. Maybe some arrows. 1 -> 2 -> 3. 9 <- 8 <- 7.
38
39Triangles man! a^2 + b^2 = c^2

41We all like making lists
42------------------------
43
44The above header should be an H2 tag. Now, for a list of fruits:
45
46* Red Apples
47* Purple Grapes
48* Green Kiwifruits
49
50Let's get crazy:
51
521.  This is a list item with two paragraphs. Lorem ipsum dolor
53    sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aliquam hendrerit
54    mi posuere lectus.
55
56    Vestibulum enim wisi, viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet
57    vitae, risus. Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum
58    sit amet velit.
59
602.  Suspendisse id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
61
62What about some code **in** a list? That's insane, right?
63
641. In Ruby you can map like this:
65
66        ['a', 'b'].map { |x| x.uppercase }
67
682. In Rails, you can do a shortcut:
69
70        ['a', 'b'].map(&:uppercase)
71
72Some people seem to like definition lists
73
74<dl>
75  <dt>Lower cost</dt>
76  <dd>The new version of this product costs significantly less than the previous one!</dd>
77  <dt>Easier to use</dt>
78  <dd>We've changed the product so that it's much easier to use!</dd>
79</dl>
80
81I am a robot
82------------
83
84Maybe you want to print `robot` to the console 1000 times. Why not?
85
86    def robot_invasion
87      puts("robot " * 1000)
88    end
89
90You see, that was formatted as code because it's been indented by four spaces.
91
92How about we throw some angle braces and ampersands in there?
93
94    <div class="footer">
95        &copy; 2004 Foo Corporation
96    </div>
97
98Set in stone
99------------

101Preformatted blocks are useful for ASCII art:
102
103<pre>
104             ,-.
105    ,     ,-.   ,-.
106   / \   (   )-(   )
107   \ |  ,.>-(   )-<
108    \|,' (   )-(   )
109     Y ___`-'   `-'
110     |/__/   `-'
111     |
112     |
113     |    -hrr-
114  ___|_____________
115</pre>
116
117Playing the blame game
118----------------------
119
120If you need to blame someone, the best way to do so is by quoting them:
121
122> I, at any rate, am convinced that He does not throw dice.
123
124Or perhaps someone a little less eloquent:
125
126> I wish you'd have given me this written question ahead of time so I
127> could plan for it... I'm sure something will pop into my head here in
128> the midst of this press conference, with all the pressure of trying to
129> come up with answer, but it hadn't yet...
130>
131> I don't want to sound like
132> I have made no mistakes. I'm confident I have. I just haven't - you
133> just put me under the spot here, and maybe I'm not as quick on my feet
134> as I should be in coming up with one.
135
136Table for two
137-------------
138
139<table>
140  <tr>
141    <th>ID</th><th>Name</th><th>Rank</th>
142  </tr>
143  <tr>
144    <td>1</td><td>Tom Preston-Werner</td><td>Awesome</td>
145  </tr>
146  <tr>
147    <td>2</td><td>Albert Einstein</td><td>Nearly as awesome</td>
148  </tr>
149</table>

151Crazy linking action
152--------------------
153
154I get 10 times more traffic from [Google] [1] than from
155[Yahoo] [2] or [MSN] [3].
156
157  [1]: http://google.com/        "Google"
158  [2]: http://search.yahoo.com/  "Yahoo Search"
159  [3]: http://search.msn.com/    "MSN Search"
