HTML Elements :
- An element consists of three basic parts: an opening tag, the elements content, and finally, a closing tag.
Element Content - paragraph words
</p> - closing tag

</html>
2. <head> Element
- The <head> element is "next" as they say. As long as it falls somewhere between your <html> tag and your web page content.
- The head functions "behind the scenes".
- We will be placing the <title> element here.

3. The <title> Element
- Place the <title> tag within the <head> element to title your page.
- The words you write between the opening and closing <title></title> tags will be displayed at the top of a viewer's browser.
