formatting questions on the forum

Hi,

I'm trying to ask a question from class that I need help with. When I copy it onto this page it looks great. When it loads the format looks off. Any suggestions on the best way to paste something from my text editor into this forum?

See example below:

// Implement the following functions. Write at least 2
// assertions for each one (the assertions are how you
// will test your code)
//*********************************************************

function lastLetterSort(stringArray) {
  function byLastLetter(a, b) {
    //TODO: implement me. sort the strings in alphabetical
    // order using their last letter
  }
  stringArray.sort(byLastLetter);
}

function sumArray(numberArray) {
  var sum = 0;
  // TODO: implement me using forEach
  return sum;
}

function sumSort(arrayOfArrays) {
  arrayOfArrays.sort(function(item) {
    // TODO: implement me using sumArray
    //  order the arrays based on the sum of the numbers
    //  inside each array
  });
}

Robert,

I didn't know that you didn't know how to do this. Sorry about earlier.

when posting, just above the post comment button there is a link called Markdown Cheatsheet click that and it will tell you how to post code into the comment field.

Thanks, Jacob!

let me know when you reformatted your prior question, and I will be happy to help if I can.

Jacob, Yes, I reposted a few minutes ago under "Sorting Question". Thanks!

I updated the format of your question by adding triple-backticks: ```javascript before and ``` after your code block.
