The code starts with the standard tags HTML, HEAD, TITLE ETC.
In the BODY TAG, the HEADING IS GIVEN in H2 AND H3 HEADER as already discussed in the previous post.
The same text is written in the code TWICE. Once without the PRE TAG and one with the PRE TAG.
THE text without the PRE TAG shows the output in the straight line without any line breaks or formatting whereas the text inside the PRE TAG comes out to be exactly the same as written in the code.
