The heading tags in HTML are used to define headings of different levels, from `<h1>` (the highest, most important level) to `<h6>` (the lowest, least important level). These tags help to structure the content hierarchically and improve the readability and accessibility of the document.
Usage and Examples:
- `<h1>`: Represents the main heading of a page. It is typically used once per page.
- `<h2>` to `<h6>`: Represent subheadings, with `<h2>` being the second most important heading, followed by `<h3>`, and so on.

<head>
<title>Heading Example</title>

<h2>Subheading (h2)</h2>
<p>This is a paragraph under a subheading.</p>
<h3>Sub-subheading (h3)</h3>
<p>This is a paragraph under a sub-subheading.</p>
<h4>Sub-sub-subheading (h4)</h4>
<p>This is a paragraph under a sub-sub-subheading.</p>
<h5>Sub-sub-sub-subheading (h5)</h5>
<p>This is a paragraph under a sub-sub-sub-subheading.</p>
<h6>Sub-sub-sub-sub-subheading (h6)</h6>
<p>This is a paragraph under a sub-sub-sub-sub-subheading.</p>

Paragraph Tag (`<p>`)
The paragraph tag in HTML is used to define a block of text as a paragraph. It is a block-level element, which means it starts on a new line and takes up the full width available. Paragraphs are typically used to separate blocks of text, making content more readable and organized.
Usage and Examples:
- `<p>`: Defines a paragraph of text.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Paragraph Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome to My Webpage</h1>
<p>This is the first paragraph of the webpage. It provides an introduction to the content of the page.</p>
<p>This is the second paragraph. It contains more detailed information and follows the first paragraph.</p>
<p>
This is a longer paragraph with multiple lines of text.
When displayed in the browser, it will automatically wrap and maintain the formatting specified in the HTML and CSS.
</p>

Key Points:
1. Headings:
- Define the structure and hierarchy of content.
- `<h1>` is for the main heading, usually used once per page.
- `<h2>` to `<h6>` are for subheadings, used to further organize content into sections and subsections.
2. Paragraphs:
- Used to separate and format blocks of text.
- Enhance readability by breaking up long texts into manageable chunks.
Both heading and paragraph tags are fundamental elements in HTML, essential for creating well-structured, readable, and accessible web content.
