Or
use the IDE "copy for forum" ability and paste it here.
Or
type three ticks, type or paste your code then type three more ticks.
The last one is very nice on the desktop but a PITA on an iPad while designers have made getting certain characters into a bit of a challenging, er, game.
Oh, that </> makes the ticks, never mind… nice!

There is an automatic function for doing this in the Arduino-IDE
just three steps
- press Ctrl-T for autoformatting your code
- do a rightclick with the mouse and choose "copy for forum"
- paste clipboard into write-window of a posting

I can't find the tick on a small iPad. On a big iPad it's right there just like a "real" keyboard.

So this </> thing is what and all I will use.
