Sample blog post

This is a demo post to show you how to write blog posts with markdown. I strongly encourage you to take 5 minutes to learn how to write in markdown - it’ll teach you how to transform regular text into bold/italics/headings/tables/etc.

Here is some bold text

Here is a secondary heading

Here’s a useless table:

How about a yummy crepe?

It can also be centered!

Here’s a code chunk:

var foo = function(x) {
  return(x + 5);
}
foo(3)

And here is the same code with syntax highlighting:

var foo = function(x) {
  return(x + 5);
}
foo(3)

def maximumProfit(prices):
    profit = 0
    max_future = prices[-1]
    max_future_price = [0] * len(prices)
    for i in range(len(prices)-2, -1, -1):
        max_future = max(max_future, prices[i])
        max_future_price[i] = max_future
    profit = 0
    for i in range(len(prices)):
        if max_future_price[i] > prices[i]:
            profit += max_future_price[i] - prices[i]
    return profit

And here is the same code yet again but with line numbers:

1
2
3
4

var foo = function(x) {
  return(x + 5);
}
foo(3)

Boxes

You can add notification, warning and error boxes like this:

Math

The quadratic formula states that for an equation in the form \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \), the solution is:

$$ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} $$

You can also write inline equations like this: The discriminant \( b^2 - 4ac \) determines the number of solutions.

Notification

Note: This is a notification box.

Warning

Warning: This is a warning box.

Error

Error: This is an error box.
