Hey, big fan of the Primer!

According to markdown specs ATX style '#' headings must be followed up a space; otherwise the #'s are escaped in many common renderers. For example, when viewed on Github many of the heading in this book are not displayed correctly.

I assume the gitbook renderer is lax about this, but it would be nice to fix for the occasions in which people are viewing the raw markdown either through a preview or when editing it in a text editor that has syntax highlighting. Currently the .md files are split between using a space correctly and omitting a space, so doing an all-at-once replace might also help to ensure consistency in future.
