I need to paste the code I've been working on into my question, but I don't know how.

Someone suggested formatting my question using Markdown-----I checked the Markdown cheat sheet and still can't figure it out. Any helpful hints on how to paste it into the question?

I found a great answer for you on this older thread here :

"Create a code block when you need to show multiple lines of HTML, CSS, Ruby, Java or other code. To create a code block:

Hit return twice -- this creates a new line and adds a space between the code block and any text above it. (It's important to make sure you have an empty line above and below your code block, or else the code formatting doesn't always work.)

Type three back tick characters: ```

Hit return to create another new line and paste or type your HTML, CSS or other code.

Hit return and add three more back tick characters: ```

Hit return again to create an empty space below the code block."

Thanks to girl power I was able to figure this out. Thanks Angela for asking this question prior to me and thanks Courtney for having the right answer!
