HTML-Hypertext Markup Language 1.introduction:-: Writing HTML Document Structure

HTML is a markup language used to define the structure and layout of a web page. It uses tags, attributes, and elements to identify different parts of a document and tell browsers how to display them. The basic structure of an HTML document includes header, title, and body tags. There are two types of elements - container elements which require opening and closing tags, and empty elements which only require a starting tag. Attributes provide additional information about elements and are written inside the starting tag.
