Markdown example

This is a simple example of a Markdown document.

Use a blank link between paragraphs. You can use a bit of bold or italics. Use backticks to indicate code that will be rendered in monospace.

Here's a list:

• an item in the list
• another item
• yet another item

You can include blocks of code using three backticks:

x <- rnorm(100)
y <- 2*x + rnorm(100)

Or you could indent four spaces:

mean(x)
sd(x)

It'll figure out numbered lists, too:

1. First item
2. Second item

And it's easy to create links, like to the Markdown page.
