From the Markdown Cheatsheet link:

Wrap your code with 3 backticks (```) on the line before and after. If you specify the language after the first set of backticks, that'll help us with syntax highlighting.

      ```html
      <p>This is code!</p>
      ```

Dear William Li, thank you so much for your answer, It worked perfectly!!!! Best answer

The only part I did not quite understand was "markdown cheatsheet link", but then I figured it was a website :D if someone needs a link to it here it is:

P.S: a tick (`) is not a (') ( for anyone confused )
