 An extension method translates to a specially labelled method that takes the leading parameter section as its first argument list. The label, expressed
 as `<extension>` here, is compiler-internal. So, the definition of `circumference` above translates to the following method, and can also be invoked as such:
 
-```scala
+```
 <extension> def circumference(c: Circle): Double = c.radius * math.Pi * 2
 
 assert(circle.circumference == circumference(circle))
