To create a link, you can use square brackets ([]) around your link text, followed by parentheses (()) around your link URL. For example:

To create a code block, you can use three backticks (`) on a separate line before and after your code. For example:

print("Hello world!")


```


You can also specify the language of your code after the first three backticks for syntax highlighting.
