Challenge: Nest an Anchor Element within a Paragraph

Link to the challenge:

First, lets look at the two elements they are talking about here.

An <a href> and a <p>.

<a href> An anchor link, allows you to create a link using text.
<p> Represents a text Paragraph.

Nesting means to put one element inside another element.

In this case, they are asking you to put an <a href> element inside the <p> element.


What this looks like :

This text contains a link

<p> This text contains a <a href="https://www.freecatphotoapp.com" target="_blank">link</a></p>

View more cat photos

<p> View more <a href="https://www.freecatphotoapp.com" target="_blank">photos of some cats</a></p>```

In this tutorial they are asking that you use the preexisting <a href>:
