Writing is the process of using letters from the alphabet to deliver your thoughts and ideas through readable form. Therefore, it must be made clear and neat for easy reading. Your writings must be presented well to avoid questions like;

1. Why aren’t there spaces between words?

1. HEADER MARKDOWN

3. ITALIC MARKDOWN
4. TABLES MARKDOWN
5. BOLD MARKDOWN
