Superscript

So, all of us has seen power to variables or numbers at many places and several times. That is exactly know as superscript, the value which is a bit elevated from the main text. For this purpose, we use the <sup> tag. The superscript value is enclosed in the <sup> tag.

Example: Suppose we need to write square of x in our webpage, then it would be done as follows.

<p> x ² </p>

GitHub Gist Link:

<script src=”https://gist.github.com/snehseel/f821842ad8b8c722c3d87dc60a1b657d.js”> </script>

Here <p> tag is used for the paragraph and the text within the <sup> tag would be superscripted and x2 would be shown on the webpage.

2 is superscripted to x.

The CSS element of the superscript tag would be as follows:

<style>
Sup
{
Vertical-align: super;
Font-size: smaller;
}
</style>

GitHub Gist Link:

<script src=”https://gist.github.com/snehseel/3b08860247a7dcc3fc9d6f509635cbe7.js”> </script>

Most browsers will display the superscript text <sup> with the above CSS along with the default value.
