I have a markdown document I'm processing with the pandoc tool to generate HTML and PDF documents. I'm trying to include a table in the document. Regular markdown doesn't support tables, but pandoc does. I've tried copy-pasting the definition of a table from the pandoc documentation into my source document, but when running it through the pandoc program the resulting document is all crammed into one big table.
Can anyone show me a pandoc table that renders properly?

Pandoc is a command-line tool for converting files from one markup language to another. Markup languages use tags to annotate sections of a document. Commonly used markup languages include Markdown, ReStructuredText, HTML, LaTex, ePub, and Microsoft Word DOCX.
Pandoc is a command line tool that you can use to automatically convert files from markup format to another. With Pandoc, you can write in something easy like Markdown, Microsoft Word, or LibreOffice, and convert it something hard like: HTML. Ebook formats.
Pandoc can convert between numerous markup and word processing formats, including, but not limited to, various flavors of Markdown, HTML, LaTeX and Word docx.
As you can see, first, write pandoc to execute any pandoc command, and then write the file name of a file with extension which you want to convert to a markdown file. The -o stands for output file name and provide name of the file with extension to which it should be converted.
