<pre> means

preformatted – with line breaks and spaces and all, as set in the code. 
    Or, for that matter, lack of line breaks – look out for that, as the text can run right off the right edge.
    It's typically rendered in a monospaced font.
    It's a <p>-level tag, and you can use most HTML markup inside it, 
such as italics.
