How to display HTML tags on page?

When I write text on Notepad++ and after run on browser, I see what I've done on text editor. But if I want to show tags, it is nothing will appears. How to show everything like simple text? "Now I want to show you how should be used HTML tags: <html></html> , <body></body> <p>, <br/> etc. You need too use open tag and after closing tag: <title>My first page</title> " It was example. So how to show everything when I running page?

I think it may be necessary to change all your "<" to "&lt" and ">" to "&gt" in order for them to be printed as you want. So &ltp&gtThis is a p element.&lt/p&gt appears as <p>This is a p element.</p>

@Martin Taylor @Code Crasher . Thanks so much. So I see you use < in front and > to end. Not very easy , but I need to try ;) I don't know why can not mention you in comment? :( It is very long way. But it is works. I did same thing easier with <xmp></xmp> https://code.sololearn.com/WBI3S7seaTGf/#html @Code Crasher, I used your example.

You can use <xmp> </xmp> for this. Actually, this tag is already deprecated, but still working.

Code Crasher This is in fact the first time I am hearing(actually seeing) about HTML3. I naturally assumed it started from 4 lol. You must have been coding for long.

@Russ I tried to do many things. I know one method <xmp> </xmp> put everything inside these elements, but on page shows not a nice and bit messy. And not how I want to see it. So how Sololearn doing that on our lessons?
