Meta tags are HTML tags that are placed in the head section of an HTML document to provide

information about the web page to search engines and other applications that read the HTML
code. Here's an example of how to add a meta tag to an HTML document:

In this example, we have added a meta tag for the description of the web page. The tag starts
with <meta> and has two attributes: name and content. The name attribute specifies what kind
of information the meta tag provides, in this case, it's a description. The content attribute
specifies the actual content of the meta tag.

name: specifies the type of information being provided by the meta tag.

content: provides the actual content of the meta tag.

charset: specifies the character encoding of the web page.

http-equiv: provides information about the HTTP headers that should be sent when the page is
requested.
Computer code tags in HTML are used to display code snippets or computer code on a web
page. They are commonly used by developers or bloggers who write about coding or
programming topics. Here's an example of how to use computer code tags in HTML:
In this example, we have used the <code> tag to display the HTML code of a simple web page.
The code is displayed in a monospaced font with no line breaks, making it easy to read and
copy.

You can also use the <pre> tag to display code with line breaks and indentation preserved.
Here's an example:
In this example, we have used the <pre> tag to display a JavaScript function with line breaks
and indentation preserved. The code is also displayed in a monospaced font, making it easy to
read.

Computer code tags can also be used with syntax highlighting libraries such as Prism.js or
highlight.js to make the code more visually appealing and easier to read. Here's an example
using Prism.js:
In this example, we have used the <pre> and <code> tags along with the class attribute to
specify the language of the code. We have also included the Prism.js library to provide syntax
highlighting for the code. The library is included using a script tag at the end of the body tag,
and a CSS file is included in the head tag to provide styling for the highlighted code

<kbd> Element:
The <kbd> element is used to display keyboard input. The content of this element is displayed
in a monospace font with no line breaks. The <kbd> element is useful for indicating keyboard
shortcuts or other types of user input. Here's an example:

<samp> Element:
The <samp> element is used to display sample output from a program or script. The content of
this element is displayed in a monospace font with no line breaks. The <samp> element is
useful for showing the output of a program or script to the user. Here's an example:
<var> Element:
The <var> element is used to display a variable or placeholder value in a program or script. The
content of this element is displayed in a monospace font with no line breaks. The <var> element
is useful for showing the value of a variable or placeholder in a program or script. Here's an
example:

In addition to these elements, there are several libraries and frameworks that provide syntax
highlighting for computer code, making it easier to read and understand. Some popular
examples include Prism.js and highlight.js.
