Question: What is the purpose of the <pre> html tag?

Answer: The text displayed within a pre element is displayed in a fixed width and a default font. Spaces and line breaks are both displayed as typed. So text that you typed within a pre tag will be displayed exactly how you typed it.

Example: 

<pre>
         This is    a test within
         a pre html       Tag
</pre>

The above will ouput:

         This is  a test within
     a pre html   Tag

The same text without the pre tag will display the following output:

This is a test within a pre html Tag
