The datamethods.org
site allows participants to include a variety of information in their posts and replies. Here are a few of them.
Links to Web Resources
Use the notation [link description](https://...)
as rendered here: R2
When sharing a large number of files, you may want to link to, for example, the base directory of a Github
repository.
Equations
Use \LaTeX notation surrounded by $ ... $
, e.g., $\alpha_{3} + \beta X^{3}$
to get \alpha_{3} + \beta X^{3}.
Code
To use a special font for software components, surround the name in single back ticks. To include a code block, put a line containing three backticks by themselves before and after the code block, as was done here.
require(MASS)
x <- 3 # this is a comment
You can also put >
(greater than following by blank) before each line as was done here:
require(MASS)
x ← 3
y ← 2 # a comment
You can also highlight a block of code and click on the block quote icon to insert the two characters.
