Line breaks in code blocks?

[Asperamanca]

How do I do line breaks in code blocks?
I surround the following block with that strange ' sign:
int x;
int y;
x=0;\n
y=0;<p>
return x+y;

Here is what comes out:

int x; int y; x=0;\n y=0;<p> return x+y;

And yes, I have read the help
It just doesn't help because it doesn't seem to have anything to do with how things work in this forum.

@Asperamanca Use ``` (3 backticks) for code blocks and single backtick is meant to make it format in special monospace format. Putting it in 3 backticks will make it appear properly:

int x;
int y;
x=0;\n
y=0;<p>
return x+y;

Also there is list of most frequently used tags at the bottom of page when you edit or post.

Thank you. The three backtick thing doesn't seem to be documented in the help I linked above.
