WHAT IS HTML? Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)  instructs the web browser how the web page should look. The web page can include text, links, pictures and even sound and video. For this, HTML  comprises two major components, namely, hypertext and markup. Hypertext is a document that enables to organise information by connecting different pieces of information together. Hence, it enables to establish a link to non-sequential (non-linear) documents and relate the topics from the beginning to the end of the same document. Markup, on the other hand, is the special code that specifies the web browser how different parts of the document are processed. The main advantage of HTML is that it does not require any additional software to execute the code. In addition, different multimedia components can be displayed together on a web page. HTML is also simple and easy to use, can be used with all the browsers and does not require prior knowledge of any programming language.
