ASCII is the standard protocol for encoding text information as bits. The ASCII table assigns a unique binary number to every text character.
Images are made up of pixels, which are essentially a grid of values. Each value, or pixel, encodes the color at that position in the image.
The hexadecimal number system is the Base 16 number system. It is a number system that only uses 16 digits (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F)

HTML provides several tags for formatting text on web pages.
HTML headings are titles or subtitles that you want to display on a webpage. HTML headings are defined with the `<h1>` to `<h6>` tags. `<h1>` defines the most important heading. `<h6>` defines the least important heading.
The `<p>` tag defines a paragraph. Browsers automatically add a single blank line before and after each `<p>` element.
The `<i>` tag defines a part of text in an alternate voice or mood. The content inside is typically displayed in italic.
The `<b>` tag specifies bold text without any extra importance.
Allows putting links on a web page. It uses the href attribute to specify what the link should point to.
Allows adding an image to a web page. It is self-closing. The attributes of an `<img>` tag include `src`, which specifies where to get the image from (the url for an image ), and `width` and `height` attributes, which specify the size of the image in pixels.
Tags can have attributes that tell us more information about the tag.
