HTTP ERROR STATUS MESSAGES
These codes are a part of the HTTP protocol, and they help provide information about the outcome of the request made by a client (e.g., a web browser) to the server.
Each HTTP status code has a specific meaning and is grouped into different classes.
The error status messages are divided into 1xx, 2xx, 3xx, 4xx, 5xx.
