INTERNAL JAVASCRIPT

                  When JavaScript code is written within the HTML web page then 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 HTML5 document. The syntax to add internal JavaScript is:
                  <HEAD>
                  <SCRIPT>

                  JavaScript code
                  .....

                  </SCRIPT>
                  <HEAD>
                  OR

                  <BODY>
                  <SCRIPT>
                  JavaScript code
                  .....

                  </SCRIPT>
                  </BODY>

                  EXTERNAL JAVASCRIPT

                  JavaScript code can be written in a file and saved with the .js extension and this file can then be
                  linked inside the <head> and </head> tags of the HTML document in which we 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
