We like to begin this course with a little HTML exercise, even though you don't know any HTML yet.
Note that all our directions will be for Google Chrome; that's the standard browser for this course.
Use View/Developer/View Source in Chrome (the keyboard shortcut is command-option-u on a Mac) to look at the source for this web page about fun CS department activities.
Use your intuition to answer the following questions about other HTML code in this file. Guesswork is encouraged. You'll learn better if you write out the answers and compare them with your neighbor's answers. Discuss any discrepancies or ambiguity.
