  1. HTML is the code used to structure and display content on web pages.
  2. used to design web pages
  3. i’m not sure but i think its because it is the easiest to teach to learners and so acts as a building block for other languages.
  4. A tag defines which type of element some content is. For example, is it a heading or part of the body of a paragraph.
  5. tags have an opening and closing tag with the content within the two. It would be nice to somehow differentiate each tag by separate colours so it would be easier to identify the beginning and end of some particular element.I guess i might figure this out in time?
  6. Attributes are extra descriptors about how you want to display or arrange elements. This information is not displayed in the result but is clearly stated in the code.
  7. typing ! and clicking tab generated a template anatomy with tags, different elements that set the character set and attributes that all help organise the content of your webpage as needed.
