  4. Tags in HTML tell the browser that this is, indeed an HTML program and the computer should read it as HTML, not any other type of code.

  5. Most often, you would find a tag that has a starting tag, (ex: ) and a closing tag, (ex: ) which has a forward slash before the command. The starting and ending tag wrap around the text you want them to affect.

  6. An attribute is some additional description for the content. An attribute has an attribute name, and an attribute value. The attribute lets you give the contents an identifier that can be used earlier in the code to change color and font etc.

  7. The anatomy of an HTML document is,

HTML is Hypertext Markup Language. Emphasis on the “markup”.

This implies that it is a language is used in the process of “correcting or editing text” before it’s printed/displayed on a webpage. It’s standard markup language for creating web pages and web applications. When HTML is used with CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) and javascript, it forms a triad of cornerstone technologies of the world wide web.

So HTML is important for the front end development of web-based applications. HTML has also ‘tags’. Tags represent the root of an html. In other words html tags inform browsers that the document presented is an html document.
structure of of an HTML document mainly consists of ;

head. The head element contains title and meta data of a web document.
body. The body element contains the information that you want to display on a web page.

The attributes are special words used inside the opening tag to control the tag’s behaviour. HTML attribute is a modifier of an HTML element type. An attribute either modifies the default functionality of an element type or provides functionality to certain element types unable to function correctly without them. In HTML syntax, an attribute is added to an HTML start tag.

The title></title sets the title of your page which will be displayed in the browser bar and when the user favorites your page. It is good practice to always just include !DOCTYPE html & meta charset=“utf-8”.

Hi Pete, with regards to the answer to your first question: It is important to make the distinction that HTML is not a programming language; it is a markup language.

Generally, a programming language allows you to describe some sort of process of doing something, whereas HTML is a way of adding context and structure to text.
