My 7A Part 1 post discussed the first two coding languages: HTML (used to add structure to a webpage) and Javascript (used to add functionality to a web page). The final coding language is called CSS, which stands for Cascading Style Sheets.\u00a0 CSS is the coding language that is used to add design elements to a web page. It is used to style a html document. In class today, we learned how to use CSS to change the font, color, and background color of a html document. That was pretty cool to learn. Jumping back to Javascript, I wanted to discuss how it is considered event-driven. \u00a0What does that mean?\u00a0 So Javascript is a bit different than HTML and CSS. Unlike the other two coding languages, Javascript is created for a situation where a user takes action after action, and its not expected the program to close. Instead, its meant to keep responding to its actions (Aleksic, 2017). For example, when you\u2019re on a web page, Javascript never shuts down. It’s waiting while you are reading a page. It will wait until you scroll down or if you click on another link within the website. It\u2019s just interesting how we all use the internet so often, and for me I never really put too much thought on how it all operates. This class has given me some good insight on technology and the internet. All information that is valuable for business professionals.<\/p>\n
