Description The subfigure tag is used when you want to include multiple figures, tables, or blocks of code within a single figure tag. You should use the subfigure tag only if the subfigures are related and you want to display them together. The subfigure tag is similar to the figure tag, except that it cannot contain another subfigure tag.
