Some time during the coding of html there are some elements are used
for describing the parts of technical documents, such as code code
,
variables var
, program samples samp
, and
user-entered keyboard strokes kbd
. For me, it’s a quaint
reminder of HTML’s origins in the scientific world Code, sample, and
keyboard elements typically render in a constant-width (also called monospace)
font such as Courier by default. Variables usually render in italics.
The syntax for citation:
The cite element is used to identify a reference to another document, such as a book, magazine, article title, and so on. Citations are typically rendered in italic text by default.

Explaination of cite tag.
When we write an article or some other type of ducument where it becomes necessory to know the owner of that article.In HTML the element where the name of the owner,writer or composer is mentioned is called cite tag.This is usefull and very important tag which some time saves you from copyright act.So don't forget to use the cite tag using some article of others.
Program code elements.
The syntax for code:
<
code
>
a = "name";
b = "address";
c = "age";

Explaination of code tag
To display some computer codes in html output are done by using code tag.It font style is according to the browers. But make the code unique in display and user can understand that, the shown text is code.
The syntax for variables
<
var
>
show Variable
<
/var

Explaination of variables
If you are a programmer than we will be aware of variables in programming.To show variables in html there is variable tag.This make varibles look unique so that the user can easily understand the variables shown in html documnet.These are mostly shown in italic style while they depend on browser default font.
The syntax for sample:
<
samp
>
warnings!
<
/samp
>
Explaination of sample tag
When the user want to show some samples, quoted text to make it's look unique then he use samp tag. It's font style is according to the browser's default font style.
The syntax for kbd:
<
kbd
>
ctrl + c
<
/kbd
>
<
kbd
>
ctrl + x
<
/kbd
>
<
kbd
>
ctrl + s
<
/kbd

kbd tag's explainations
There are many keybord shortcuts and buttons in keyboard. When user want to show some keyboard shortcut or some keyboards buttons in the html output the he use "kbd" tag. For example "Ctrl + c" is used to copy text.When we show it in html output as a plain text user will be little confused, but when we make it's looks unique by showning it through the "kbd" tag, than it will be very easy for user to understand that is the keyboard shortcut or any button.
