Word wrap is a computer feature that automatically moves a word to the next line when it reaches the end of a line, preventing text from extending beyond the right margin. This allows text to fit within the designated width of a document, window, or text box, making it readable without horizontal scrolling. It is a fundamental feature in word processors, text editors, and web browsers.

Automatic formatting: Instead of manually inserting line breaks, word wrap does it automatically, which saves time and keeps text tidy.

Adaptability: It makes text display dynamic; when you change margins or screen size, the text will re-wrap to fit the new dimensions.

Readability: By ensuring lines don't overflow, word wrap keeps text flowing from top to bottom, making it easier to read.

Difference from character wrap: Word wrap breaks lines between words, while character wrap may break a word in the middle if a character goes beyond the margin.
