HTML
Hypertext Markup Language, or HTML for short, is a programming language most commonly used to develop websites and offline applications, such as manuals. Though the initial intent of the language was to exchange information from a small network of computers, it is now most often used to share information and allow engagement in online activities throughout a network with an increasing number of host computers. Questions about the development of applications and pages through HTML belong in this category.

How are opening and closing tags different?
An opening tag is used to indicate the starting point of an action by a tag. The closing tag shows when to stop this action. The front slash is added to a tag, before the tagname, to indicate that it is a closing tag. What is between the tags is effectively selected for this action. To start bolding for example, we use <b> and to stop we use </b> as follows:
This text is <b> bold </b> text.
The word bold in the above sentence would be bolded, as that is what is enclosed by the opening and closing tags. The text outside of that is as normal.
What HTML character symbolizes that the tag is a closing tag?
You are probably referring to the front slash. It, along with the less than sign and the greater than sign and the name of the tag, form an end tag, like this:
</html>
The opening tag does not have the front slash, so it is the character that makes the difference.
Nobody knows for certain who came up with it first. Some say the cavemen or the Chinese, but there seems to be no credible proof of that. The only original source for the idea of the Chinese inventing it and playing the game in a macabre sort of way comes from a movie.
But what we do know is that the game is at least 600 years old. Three Africans, Adelin Zika, Micheal Hud and Kirit Kam, are credited for having invented it.
Augustus Hagerson adapted and popularized the sport in Africa in 1832 and spread the sport to Guam in 1833.
Others claim it began in the US in 1920 by an independent invention. Two men, Walter Young and Philip Livingston, returned from World War I and found work in a factory. They engaged in horseplay at work by throwing a foam ball at each other. One day, the foam ball got into a machine and came out with a fine layer of rubber on it. They were fired for this, but the ball inspired them to create a new sport. While this new sport caught on in Akron, Ohio and surrounding areas, there was little interest beyond Ohio. However, it seems the US Department of Education quickly picked up the game and introduced it as part of physical education in public schools.
