What is Internet?

Internet, a system architecture that has revolutionized communications and methods of

commerce by allowing various computer networks around the world to interconnect.
Sometimes referred to as a “network of networks,” the Internet emerged in the United
States in the 1970s but did not become visible to the general public until the early 1990s.
By 2020, approximately 4.5 billion people, or more than half of the world’s population,
were estimated to have access to the Internet. The Internet provides a capability so
powerful and general that it can be used for almost any purpose that depends on
information, and it is accessible by every individual who connects to one of its
constituent networks. It supports human communication via social media, electronic
mail (e-mail), “chat rooms,” newsgroups, and audio and video transmission and allows
people to work collaboratively at many different locations. It supports access to digital
information by many applications, including the World Wide Web.

What is The World Wide Web?

The World Wide Web (WWW), commonly known as the Web, is an information system
where documents and other web resources are identified by Uniform Resource
Locators (URLs, such as https://example.com/), which may be interlinked by hypertext,
and are accessible over the Internet.[1][2] The resources of the Web are transferred via
the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), may be accessed by users by a software
application called a web browser, and are published by a software application called a
web server. The World Wide Web is not synonymous with the Internet, which pre-
existed the Web in some form by over two decades and upon whose technologies the
Web is built. English scientist Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web in 1989.
