Mark As Completed Discussion

Welcome to the lesson on HTML!

HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language and it is the standard markup language used for creating the structure of web pages. It provides a set of tags that define the elements and their hierarchical structure on a web page.

HTML is the backbone of every web page. It allows you to define headings, paragraphs, lists, links, images, and much more. By using different HTML tags, you can structure and organize the content of your web page.

Let's start with a simple example:

TEXT/X-C++SRC
1#include <iostream>
2using namespace std;
3
4int main() {
5  // HTML is the standard markup language
6  // used for creating the structure of web pages.
7  cout << "<h1>Hello, HTML!</h1>" << endl;
8
9  // HTML tags define the elements
10  // and their hierarchical structure.
11  cout << "<p>This is a paragraph.</p>" << endl;
12
13  return 0;
14}```
15
16In the example above, we have a C++ code snippet that demonstrates the usage of HTML tags. When executed, it will output the following HTML code:
17
18```html
19<h1>Hello, HTML!</h1>
20<p>This is a paragraph.</p>

In this case, the <h1> tag is used to define a heading, and the <p> tag is used to define a paragraph. These tags are essential to structure the content of a web page.

HTML provides a wide range of tags that you can use to create different types of content such as headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, forms, and more. Each tag has its own specific purpose and usage.

In the upcoming lessons, we will explore different HTML tags in detail and learn how to use them to create well-structured and semantic web pages.

Let's move on to the next lesson and dive into the world of HTML!
