+ 1. What is HTML? Where does it come from? What is it for? +

HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. It is the standard markup language for creating web pages and web applications. + The HTML standard, or the rules for how it works is maintained by the World Wide Web Consortium. +

+

HTML describes the structure of a web page semantically. + Its primary purpose is to allow the structuring of documents (such as headings, paragraphs, lists, links, images, and other elements) + and to ensure that the content is properly interpreted by web browsers and other web-based software.

+
+ +
+ 2. What different tags did we learn today? +

Today we learned various tags such as:

+ +
+ +
+ 3. What is the structure of a tag? What parts does each tag have? +

A tag in HTML consists of:

+ +
+ + +## Challenge + +For these exercises, do not use any resources outside of this site, codepen, and your browser inspect tool (found by right clicking). +That means the URL of your browser should always start with `https://csctd.github.io/2024/` or `codepen.io` during this exercise. + +
+ 1. What does the `blockquote` tag do? +

The `blockquote` tag is used to indicate a block of quoted text from another source within a document. It typically indents the quoted text and may display it in italics depending on the browser's default styling.

+
+ +
+ 2. What does the `code` tag do? +

The `code` tag is used to define a piece of computer code. It is typically displayed in a monospace font and may preserve whitespace and line breaks. This tag is used to represent code snippets within the text.

+
+ +
+ 3. What tag puts text in the browser tab? Where does that tag live? +

The tag that puts text in the browser tab is the `title` tag. It is placed within the `head` section of an HTML document, specifically between the opening `head` and closing `head` tags.

+
+ +
+ 4. What is the syntax of a comment (notes for other programmers who read code that does not show in the browser) in HTML? +

In HTML, comments are used to add notes or annotations for developers and do not display in the browser. The syntax for a comment in HTML is:

+
`!-- This is a comment --`
+

The comment starts with `!-- and ends with --`. Anything between these markers is considered a comment and is ignored by the browser when rendering the webpage.
