 useful, so allow me to elaborate. Say you've got the following bit of
 Javascript:
 
-    var ytmnd = function() { alert("you're the man now " + (arguments[0] || "dog")); }; 
+```javascript
+var ytmnd = function() {
+  alert("you're the man now " + (arguments[0] || "dog"));
+};
+```
 
 Calling `ytmnd()` gets us `you're the man now dog`, while
 `ytmnd("david")` yields `you're the man now david`. Calling simply
 `ytmnd` gives us a reference to the function that we're free to pass
 around and call at a later time. Consider now the following Ruby code:
 
-    def ytmnd(name = "dog") puts "you're the man now #{name}" end 
+```ruby
+def ytmnd(name = "dog")
+  puts "you're the man now #{name}"
+end
+```
