Markdown: Headers

Markdown supports two types of headers.
a.   Settext
b.   Atx

Settext-style headers
You can create Settext-style headers by underlining the text using = sign or _ sign. '=' sign is used for first-level headers and '_' sign is used for second level headers.


hello_world.md
Experience life in all possible ways good-bad, bitter-sweet, dark-light,summer-winter.
==========

Don't be afraid of experience, because the more experience you have, the more mature you become.

Note
a.   Optionally, you may “close” atx-style headers
###### Friendship is the purest love. ######

The closing hashes don’t need to match the number of hashes used to open the header.

b.   Any number of underlining =’s or -’s will work in Settext-style headers
