Question Mark

The question mark is a punctuation mark used at the end of a sentence to indicate a direct question or to express doubt or uncertainty. It is represented by a symbol "?". In HTML, the question mark can be encoded using the entity reference "?" or by directly using the Unicode character code "?".

Examples:

  1. What is your name?
  2. Are you sure you want to delete this file?
  3. I'm not sure what time the party starts?

The question mark can also be used to denote uncertainty or express disbelief in a statement. It can convey a sense of puzzlement or signify a request for further information. Additionally, the question mark is commonly used in informal writing, such as social media posts or online chat conversations, to indicate a sarcastic or rhetorical question.

Examples:

  1. So, you thought you could beat me, huh?
  2. Oh, you're suddenly too busy to hang out with us, aren't you?
  3. Great job on finishing your assignment late again?
