HOW TO USE THIS FILE
=====================
Paste everything below the line into a new Blogger post using "HTML view"
(or paste as plain text if your editor auto-converts pasted text to HTML).
Publish/preview it, then check that every item in the checklist at the
bottom renders correctly.
NOTE: Markdown blockquotes (lines starting with ">") are NOT auto-converted
by the cleanup script — only real blockquotes created via the editor's
quote button will render styled. Everything else below (bold, italic,
strikethrough, code, links, headings, lists, tables, fenced code, and
LaTeX math) is auto-converted / auto-rendered.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Text Formatting Test
This paragraph tests **bold text**, *italic text*, ***bold and italic***,
~~strikethrough text~~, and `inline code`. It also has a [link to
Anthropic](https://www.anthropic.com) to test link conversion.
Here's a sentence with underscores for _italic using underscores_ and
__bold using underscores__ as an alternative syntax test.
## Heading Levels
### Heading Level 3
#### Heading Level 4
##### Heading Level 5
###### Heading Level 6
## Lists
Unordered list:
- First item
- Second item with **bold** inside
- Third item with `inline code` inside
Ordered list:
1. Step one
2. Step two with *italic* inside
3. Step three with a [link](https://example.com)
## Table Test
| Exam | Subject | Pass Rate |
| --- | --- | --- |
| JUPEB | Mathematics | 87% |
| IJMB | Physics | 79% |
| NMCN | Anatomy | 91% |
## Code Block Test
```python
def quadratic_roots(a, b, c):
discriminant = b**2 - 4*a*c
root1 = (-b + discriminant**0.5) / (2*a)
root2 = (-b - discriminant**0.5) / (2*a)
return root1, root2
```
## Horizontal Rule Test
Above this line is content, below is more content.

## LaTeX Math Test
Inline math: The quadratic formula is $x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$
and Einstein's famous equation is $E = mc^2$.
Inline math with underscores and asterisks (to test that math is protected
from the markdown bold/italic converter): $a_1 \cdot b_2 = c_3$ and
$x_n * y_n$.
Display math (centered, own line):
$$\int_0^\infty e^{-x^2} \, dx = \frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2}$$
Another display block — a matrix:
$$
\begin{pmatrix}
1 & 2 \\
3 & 4
\end{pmatrix}
$$
A sentence combining **bold text** with inline math $\sum_{i=1}^{n} i = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}$
right next to it, to confirm markdown and math don't interfere with each other.

CHECKLIST — confirm each renders correctly on the live post:
[ ] Bold, italic, bold+italic, strikethrough, inline code all display styled
[ ] Link is clickable and styled as a link
[ ] Headings 3–6 show in decreasing size with your article's heading style
[ ] Bullet list and numbered list display as real lists (not literal - / 1.)
[ ] Table renders as an actual bordered table, not pipe characters
[ ] Code block renders in the dark code box with the Python monospaced
[ ] Horizontal rule shows as a divider line, not literal ---
[ ] Quadratic formula renders as a proper fraction with square root
[ ] E = mc^2 renders with superscript 2
[ ] Underscore/asterisk math ($a_1 \cdot b_2$) renders correctly as math,
NOT as italic text with stray symbols
[ ] Integral and matrix display math are centered on their own line
[ ] The bold+math combo line shows bold text AND a rendered summation,
with neither breaking the other
