Hello everyone! Today I was playing around on
CodeAcademy, and thought I should make a series about how to code. Before we get started, I would like to say, I am definitely *not* a pro at this. I've learned the basics, and maybe a little bit beyond, but I still can't whip up flash games or anything like that.. yet. :)
Here we go!
Part 1:First of, I'll introduce you to the basics. How to make your text bold, how to add in a link, and other stuff like that. Yes, I know that you can do all that stuff with the toolbar, but you'll need it if you ever use a platform that doesn't have it.
Also, whenever you see the --, don't copy it as well, since the system assumes I'm writing HTML code, and you won't be able to see the tag.
<-b-> means
bold. This is what it looks
like. It won't work if you don't close the tag though! So this is what you type:
<-b->Hello World<-/b->
And this is what comes up:
Hello WorldEasy right?
Same thing for
Italics. Type:
<-i->Blue, Green, Orange<-/i->
And you get:
Blue, Green, OrangeYou can also "mix and match" tags. For example, use the bold
and the italics tag at the same time, and you get:
Welcome to my blog!Remember though, first in, last out. This means if you use the bold tag first, end it last. Like so:
<-b-><-i->Example Text<-/i-><-/b->
Now on to
Headings!
This is heading 1
The text behind this:
<-h1->This brings up Heading 1, which is the biggest<-/h1>
It also works for other headings, going up to 6.
This is Heading 4
Feel free to play around with this!
Next up, adding in
Images!

That's all for today, but here's a sneak peek at what's in store next time!
See ya :]
