The less-than and greater-than symbols have special meaning in HTML. So
to display these symbols in HTML, the sequences
< and
> are used. It appears that for some reason, your browser was not displaying these sequences as the intended symbols.
(Note: To get these sequences to appear here
without being displayed as the symbols, I used the sequence for the ampersand, &. That is, &lt; and &gt;.)
