HTML <code> Tag

The <code> tag is used to format code in an HTML document. For example, if you want to write Java code and format it properly, then use the <code> element in HTML.

Let us now see an example to implement the <code> element in HTML −

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>Header Files</h1>
<h2>C++</h2>
<code>
   #include <iostream>
</code>
<h2>C</h2>
<code>
   #include <stdio>
</code>
</body>
</html>

Output

HTML <code> Tag

In the above example, we have set a small code snippet; header files in C and C++ on our web page −

<h2>C++</h2>
<code>
   #include <iostream>
</code>

The header file is set inside the <code> element that formats the code accordingly −

<code>
   #include <iostream>
</code>
