--- title: Code Sample subtitle: Using Hugo or Pygments date: 2016-03-08 tags: ["example", "code"] --- The following are two code samples using syntax highlighting. The following is a code sample using triple backticks ( ``` ) code fencing provided in Hugo. This is client side highlighting and does not require any special installation. ```javascript var num1, num2, sum num1 = prompt("Enter first number") num2 = prompt("Enter second number") sum = parseInt(num1) + parseInt(num2) // "+" means "add" alert("Sum = " + sum) // "+" means combine into a string ``` The following is a code sample using the "highlight" shortcode provided in Hugo. This is server side highlighting and requires Python and Pygments to be installed. {{< highlight javascript >}} var num1, num2, sum num1 = prompt("Enter first number") num2 = prompt("Enter second number") sum = parseInt(num1) + parseInt(num2) // "+" means "add" alert("Sum = " + sum) // "+" means combine into a string {{}} And here is the same code with line numbers: {{< highlight javascript "linenos=inline">}} var num1, num2, sum num1 = prompt("Enter first number") num2 = prompt("Enter second number") sum = parseInt(num1) + parseInt(num2) // "+" means "add" alert("Sum = " + sum) // "+" means combine into a string {{}}
