HTML
HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language. HTML is standard markup language for creating web pages.
It consists of variety of elements through which the user is able to write content to it. we use different elements for writing different things like -
For heading we use - h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6
For writing title of page we use - title
For writing paragraph we use - p
All these are nested in tags for use, for example
<tagname>content</tagname>
first tag is for starting the element and second tag is to end the element
