Summary

Build a program that dynamically generates the HTML boilerplate code and dynamically integrate a custom title.

Exercise Description

Given the following strings:

'My Site'

and the HTML boilerplate code:

<!doctype html>

<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">

  <title>Title Placeholder</title>
</head>

<body>
</body>
</html>

Write a program that generates the full HTML boilerplate code with the title integrated.

Sample Output

<!doctype html>

<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">

  <title>My Site</title>
</head>

<body>
</body>
</html>

Real World Usage

This is a common process you will utilize whenever working with multi-line strings. Specifically, this is something you're likely to come across when you need to generate HTML code if you're working with web applications.
