How to properly send raw html code to gmail using phpmailer in php

I want the code in the message body to appear the way it is in the email as per below

. In order words, how do i make the code to appear as raw codes in gmail

<html>
<script>
alert('This is your Code');
</script>
<body><p>
<b>Display as raw codes.</b>
</p>
</body></html>

below is the code

<?php

use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;


$email_subject='my codes';
$recipient_email='[email protected]';
$recipient_name='Ann';
$sender_name='john';

$mycode = "<html>
<script>
alert('This is your Code');
</script>
<body><p>
<b>Display as raw codes.</b>

$mail->isHTML(true); // Set email format to HTML

Don't do that.

If you want the message to be displayed as plain text, then don't tell the client that it should be displayed as HTML.

$mail->isHTML(false);
