In Markdown, you can create a block of text by using the greater than symbol (>).

To create a block, simply place a greater than symbol (>) at the beginning of the line you want to turn into a block. You can create a block of one line or multiple lines.

For example, the following Markdown code:

> This is a block of text.
> It can have multiple lines.
>

will produce the following block of text:

This is a block of text.
It can have multiple lines.

Blocks are useful for quoting text or highlighting important information. They can be used in a variety of situations, such as in email messages, forum posts, or even in writing documentation.
