Navigating HTML Document
After reading the HTML document, you can navigate it in different ways. To explore it further, specify a tag as an attribute. For example, examine the <head> element and display it in a structured format using the .prettify() method.

Feel free to experiment by substituting the .head attribute with .body, for example. As shown above, the <head> element encompasses several children. You can iterate through all the children of elements using a for loop and the .children attribute.
