11. HTML Overview
HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language, and
it is the most widely used language to write Web
Pages.
Hypertext refers to the way in which Web pages
(HTML documents) are linked together. Thus, the
link available on a webpage is called Hypertext.
As its name suggests, HTML is a Markup Language
which means you use HTML to simply "mark-up" a
text document with tags that tell a Web browser
how to structure it to display.

defining the structure of documents like headings,
paragraphs, lists, and so forth to facilitate the
sharing of scientific information between
researchers.

pages with the help of different tags available in
HTML language.
