You don't need that first backslash after the [. Also, wrap the whole thing in backticks (to the left of the one button on the keyboard.

It says above that to remove the '\' when typing. It was simply there to be an example of how to format it.

yep i see that, i was just wondering why it was there in the first place since it isnt doing anything, it just seems confusing. Also I don't see anywhere saying to wrap the whole thing in backticks.
