Assignment #08: a Markdown writer¶

markdown is a lightweight mark-up language which is widely used to write simplified files which are then converted to HTML with an external tool (in fact, this is exactly what the Jupyter Notebook is doing). The HTML template from last week’s assignment can be simplified in markdown to:

# A large title

## A smaller title

A paragraph with more or less text. Rather less.

![Image not found](/path/to/some/image.png)

## Another smaller title

Another paragraph with more or less text. It depends on your mood.

Write a MarkdownFile class which works much like the HTMLFile class from last week. Both classes must inherit from a FileWriter class, which must take care of the file handling logic common to both classes.
