 ## Extensible Markup Language (XML)
 
-  XML stands for eXtensible Markup Language. It is extensible, because it does not use a predefined set of tags for identifying structural components; instead, it provides a mechanism for defining such sets of tags. The main purpose of the language is to share the data. Unlike in HTML, there is no predefined set of tags in XML and tags specify meaning, rather than the presentation.
