I. Simple Text Formatting

Requirement: Type the below text into your document.
Microsoft Word, one part of the Microsoft Office suite, is a word processor developed by
Microsoft. Besides typing text, the users can easily insert special characters into the paragraph
such as “☎️📖✉️🖱️💾🖱️⌨️🛠️📜” in order to make the text more vivid.
The users can highlight the text and click the B (Bold) symbol to make the text bold (Or use the
Ctrl + B key combination). The I (Italic) symbol can make the selected text italic and the U
symbol can create underline text. We can combine these three kinds of formatting.
Some more complex kinds of formatting are available within the Font menu (Right click ->
Font). For example, Words Only enable underlying only words while ignoring the spaces
between 2 words. There are even more underline styles such as: dotted underline, double line
underline, thick underline, etc. Strikethrough or Double strikethrough command can help
creating strikethrough text formatting. Superscript and subscript commands can enable typing simple
equation like: a1x2 + b1y2 = 0.
The spaces among words can also be changed by using commands under Spacing
menu (Right click > Font > Advanced > Spacing).
