INTERNAL JAVASCRIPT

                  When JavaScript  code  is written within the HTML  web page, it  is called  internal  JavaScript.
                  We use the <SCRIPT> and </SCRIPT> tags to place the JavaScript codes either in the <HEAD> or
                  <BODY> tag of the HTML document. The syntax to add internal JavaScript is:
                  <HEAD>
                  <SCRIPT>

                  JavaScript code
                  .....

                  </SCRIPT>
                                                                               HTML provides the structural skeleton
                  </HEAD>                                                       of a webpage, similar to how natural
                  OR                                                           formations like mountains and valleys
                                                                              define the landscape of an environment.
                  <BODY>
                  <SCRIPT>
                  JavaScript code
                  .....

                  </SCRIPT>
                  </BODY>

                  EXTERNAL JAVASCRIPT

                  JavaScript code can be written in a file and saved with the .js extension. This file can then be
                  linked inside the <HEAD> and </HEAD> tags of the HTML document where you want to add this
                  code. The SRC attribute of the <SCRIPT> tag allows to give path of the JavaScript file. The syntax
                  to add external JavaScript is:

                  <HEAD>
                  <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" SRC="D:\first.js">
                  </SCRIPT>
                  </HEAD>
                  Note that there are many other scripting languages, hence, it is recommended to use the TYPE
                  attribute with the <SCRIPT> tag and set its
                  value to  text/javascript  to  specify  that

                  scripting language we are using.                   First web browser to support javascript
