Getting Started with GitHub #1

Closed github-learning-lab[bot] closed 4 years ago

Welcome to your repository!

In this repository :book:, you’ll learn how to write with Markdown :book:, a simple and widely used markup language for formatting text. Here, you’ll start building a static webpage for your customized portfolio.

What is Markdown?

Markdown is a lightweight syntax for communicating on GitHub, and many other websites. You can format words as bold or italic, add images, and create lists. Markdown is regular text combined with a few non-alphabetic symbols, such as # or *. You can use Markdown with the formatting toolbar in issues :book: and pull requests :book:, or you can type the syntax.

You can use Markdown most places around GitHub:

For more information, see “Writing on GitHub” in the GitHub Help.

Let's get started!

Step 1: Create a Task List

A task list creates checkboxes for people with access :book:in a repository to check off. They're very useful for tracking issues and pull requests.

If you include a task list in the body of an issue or pull request, you'll see a progress indicator in your issue list.

Watch out! The syntax for task lists is very specific. Be sure to include the spaces where required, or else they won't render.

Example markup

- [x] Additional markup is supported, including @mentions, #references, [links](url), **emphasis**, and <del>HTML tags</del>.
- [x] List syntax is required.
  - You can nest lists below, too!
- [x] This item is completed.
- [ ] This item is not complete.

Create a list that holds the salaries of 20 people. Write an algorithm that apportions 15% of their salaries as bonus if they earn less than 100,000 or 10% if they earn more than 100,000. The algorithm should also sum up the amount of bonuses required by both groups. Group 1 should have it's own sum, while group 2 should have it's own sum

I didn't see a task list in that comment. Remember, a task list starts with the syntax - [ ] and then the task list item. The formatting is specific! Try again with a new comment. You can copy this one if you would like to see how they look:

- [ ] Turn on GitHub Pages
- [ ] Outline my portfolio
- [ ] Introduce myself to the world

If you would like assistance troubleshooting, create a post on the GitHub Community board. You might also want to search for your issue to see if other people have resolved it in the past.
