Computer Code

To display computer code in HTML, you can use the <code> element. This element is used to represent a fragment of computer code.

 

Here's an example of how you can use the <code> element:

<p>To print "Hello, World!" in Python, you use the <code>print("Hello, World!")</code> statement.</p>

In this example, the text "print("Hello, World!")" is marked up as computer code using the <code> element. When rendered in a browser, it will typically be displayed in a monospaced font.

 

Additionally, if you want to display a block of code, you can use the <pre> element along with <code>:

<pre><code>
def greet():
    print("Hello, World!")

greet()
</code></pre>

This will preserve any formatting (such as spaces and line breaks) within the <pre> element, making it suitable for displaying multiline code snippets.

By using the <code> and <pre> elements, you can effectively represent computer code in HTML.
