Usage: When showing computer code inline (mid-sentence), indicate it by wraping that code in the <code> element. Blocks of code or pre-formatted text should be wrapped in <pre>.

Example

For example, <section> should be wrapped as inline.

  
<?php
function Smokey($says)
{
    echo "Woof woof!";
}
?>
