html

hmtl (hypertext markup language) is the most used markup language.

html displays web pages and can also have imformation that can be used to show on a web broswer
hmtl is Mark-up program, isn't a real programming language. This is because they don't have the control over the flow of the program. Such as making arrays and loops.
What mark-up language does is it gives instructions to control a computer file. 
a HTML code so that the web page can carry out the functions.
html use tags or indicated by angle brackets, < and>.  These brackets have the instructions of what will happen on the website. All tags have an open and close bracket. This enclose the content to be affected.


For example
 (This is some of my html coding from the website i made)

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html lang= "en">
    <meta charset= "utf-8">
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
            <link rel="stylesheet" href="nav.css">
<head>
    <title>Homepage</title>
</head>


As you see all the tags have both open and close tags.

My web page had a header and body section. This was defined by its tags. The header is not seen by the person on the web page but on there so it has the information of the page. Such as with the meta charset and linking the to the other pages too.
