HTML <code> For Computer Code

The HTML <code> element defines a fragment of computer code.

Text surrounded by <code> tags is typically displayed in a monospace font: 

Example

<code>
x = 5;
y = 6;
z = x + y;
</code>

Result:

x = 5; y = 6; z = x + y;

Notice that the <code> element does not preserve extra whitespace and line-breaks.

To fix this, you can put the <code> element inside a <pre> element:

Example

<pre>
<code>
x = 5;
y = 6;
z = x + y;
</code>
</pre>

Result:

x = 5; y = 6; z = x + y;
