When you posted, the first thing you did was hit "preview". It showed you the "big mess", but also asked "If something looked unlike you expected it to you might need to check out Writeup Formatting Tips". Click on that. I refer you to the seventh entry there about using <code> and </code> tags. That is precisely what you need. The rest of that info would be useful to your long stay here.
Also during the preview, there was a bunch of stuff in smaller letters at the bottom - one thing that is bolded is "Snippets of code". It contains similar instructions regarding the code tags.
