Lizwi Posted July 23, 2022 Posted July 23, 2022 Hi I have learnt that notepad is HTML editor, then what is HTML itself, is HTML a software? Can I edit directly on HTML? For example, if I do programming in python I write a code in python itself not in any editor. Is HTML a software like python? Thanks

Thanks I just used it to create web pages If you went to any page and found the "source" of the page it would show up in notepad ,a basic free text editor that came with Windows. If you edited that source code and clicked "save" or "save as" you would find that the page had been updated when viewed in the browser It was best to use notepad because it was so simple but any text editor could work. 1
Endy0816 Posted July 23, 2022 Posted July 23, 2022 (edited) HTML = Hypertext Markup Language You are marking up or indicating how you want some text displayed. Your browser interprets the underlying HTML text when it displays a web page. W3 Schools has a good tutorial if interested: https://www.w3schools.com/html/ Most websites use JavaScript as well, which is another coding language like Python. Edited July 23, 2022 by Endy0816 1

Python can be created in any text file and/or generated on demand by other script or application.. e.g. echo >script.py "python script content" then execute it.. Any programming language code can be written in any text editor (as long as you don't start using UTF-8/Unicode, some text editors don't support Unicode, which will result in damage of the code) The code is written in text file format (exceptions can be counted on one lumberjack hand, e.g. Amiga Amos https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMOS_(programming_language) ) 2 hours ago, Lizwi said: I have learnt that notepad is HTML editor, It could be, but it is not really webmaster friendly editor. Try mousepad on Linux, or ConTEXT/NotePad+ on Windows. Terminal/shell can be "HTML editor" too.. you just do: echo >index.html "<html>.....</html>" 2 hours ago, Lizwi said: Is HTML a software like python? Not really. HTML is Hyper Text Markup Language, which has nothing to do with programming languages, apart of suffix in the name. It's just a way to encode tags. HTML can be interpreted only by web-browser. Python is a way more robust and general purpose language.. 2
Doctor Derp Posted September 30, 2022 Posted September 30, 2022 HTML is a system of tags used in internet text documents. That tell a browser how to format the content in webpages. It lacks logical operators and fundamental aspects of a programming language. 1
Endy0816 Posted October 3, 2022 Posted October 3, 2022 Technically combined with CSS you can implement some logic. You're better off using it as originally intended though. Much better for any eventual debugging and/or reusing code.
pacman9090 Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 HTML is the foundation of a webpage, CSS is the design aspect of a webpage, JavaScript or Python is what adds functionality to a webpage. You can write web applications for a website in computer languages like Java or C#.

Java applets are no longer supported by web browsers (client-side).

I had also read you can create Java servlets that can run in webpages.
gulshan212 Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Hello this is Gulshan Negi Yes, you can edit HTML directly, but it is often easier and more convenient to use a text editor or integrated development environment (IDE) with syntax highlighting and other tools to assist in the creation and editing of HTML files. Examples of text editors that support HTML include Notepad, Sublime Text, and Visual Studio Code. Secondly HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is a language used to create and structure web pages. It is not the software itself, but rather a markup language that is used to describe the structure and content of web pages. Thanks

Wanderlust12 Posted February 15, 2023 Posted February 15, 2023 (edited) I know C and C++ are two fast, efficient, and mature computer languages that can be used to create operating systems, applications, and games. Are Go and Rust, two fast and efficient computer languages, that are also less mature than C and C++, good, if not better, alternatives, when it comes to speed and efficiency, for programming operating systems, applications, and games? I also know C++, Go, and Rust are considered modern computer languages, while C is not. Edited March 13, 2023 by Phi for All Removed unintended quote
pacman9090 Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 Visual Studio, IntelliJ IDEA, Aptana Studio 3, PyCharm, PhpStorm, WebStorm, Eclipse, RubyMine, Komodo IDE, and Brackets are also great for web development.
Bunty12 Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 No, HTML is not a software like Python. HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language and is a markup language used to create webpages. It is not a programming language and cannot be used to write code. You can edit HTML directly, but you need to use a text editor (like Notepad) or a web development tool (like Dreamweaver) in order to do this.
