What is the purpose of using white-space:nowrap in HTML and how does it affect the display of text content?

When using the CSS property white-space: nowrap in HTML, it prevents text content from wrapping onto a new line when it reaches the end of its container. This is useful for situations where you want to display text content in a single line without breaking it into multiple lines. ```html <div style="white-space: nowrap;"> This text will not wrap onto a new line even if it exceeds the width of its container. </div> ```
