## Syntax: Lines starting with a pipe |

Cell 1

## Syntax: Extra pipes separate cells

Cell 1 | Cell 2 | Cell 3

## Syntax: With a trailing pipe, make border

Cell 1 | Cell 2 | Cell 3

## Syntax: Table lines starting with double pipe are heading

Cell 1 | Cell 2 | Cell 3
--- | --- | ---

## Align: Spaces before the leading pipe centralize the table

Cell 1 | Cell 2 | Cell 3

## Align: Spaces inside the cell denote its alignment

Heading | Heading | Heading
--- | --- | ---
<-- | --- | -->
--- | --- | ---
--> | --- | <--

## Span: Column span is defined by extra pipes at cell closing

1 | 2 | 3+4
--- | --- | ---
1 | 2 | 3 | 4
1+2+3 | 4
1 | 2+3 | 4
1+2+3+4

## Test: Empty cells are placed as expected

0 | 1 | 2 |
4 | 5 |  | 7
8 |  | A | B
| D | E | F

## Test: Lines with different number of cells

1
1 | 2
1 | 2 | 3
1 | 2 | 3 | 4
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5

## Test: Empty cells + Span + Messy cell number = Fun!
