Preformatted Text

Including, but not limited to code. Typographically, preformatted text is not the same thing as code. Sometimes, a faithful execution of the text requires preformatted text that may not have anything to do with code. For example:

“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
    The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
    The frumious Bandersnatch!”
! " # $ % & ' ( ) * + , - . /
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 : ; < = > ?
@ A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O
P Q R S T U V W X Y Z [ \ ] ^ _
` a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o
p q r s t u v w x y z { | } ~

Code

Code can be presented inline, like <?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>, or within a pre block.

.container {
  float: left;
  margin: 0 -240px 0 0;
  width: 100%;
}

You can also get syntax highlighting by adding class="language-XXXX" to your code element, like so:

<pre>
  <code class="language-css">
    p {
      color: red
    }
  </code>
</pre>
HTML formatting
pre[class*='language-']::selection,
code[class*='language-']::selection {
  text-shadow: none;
  background: #b3d4fc;
}

@media print {
  code[class*='language-'],
  pre[class*='language-'] {
    text-shadow: none;
  }
}
CSS formatting
for (let i = 1; i <= 100; i++) {
  if (i % (3 * 5) === 0) {
    console.log('FizzBuzz');
  } else if (i % 3 === 0) {
    console.log('Fizz');
  } else if (i % 5 === 0) {
    console.log('Buzz');
  } else {
    console.log(i);
  }
}
JavaScript formatting

And many more!


Figures

Figures are usually used to refer to images:

Figure Heading

This is a placeholder image, with supporting caption.

Here, a part of a poem is marked up using figure:

‘Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Jabberwocky (first verse). Lewis Carroll, 1832-98

Blockquotes

Let's keep it simple. Be sure to style the citation.

People think focus means saying yes to the thing you’ve got to focus on. But that’s not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are. You have to pick carefully. I’m actually as proud of the things we haven’t done as the things I have done. Innovation is saying no to 1,000 things.

Steve Jobs, Apple Worldwide Developers’ Conference, 1997

And here's a bit of trailing text.
