.w3r {
color: white; /* Set text color to white */
float: left; /* Float the element to the left */
margin-right: 2%; /* Set right margin to 2% */
font-size: 20px; /* Set font size to 20 pixels */
}
.animation {
background-color: #CC3333; /* Set background color */
height: 50px; /* Set height */
width: 100%; /* Set width to 100% */
overflow: hidden; /* Hide overflow */
}
div {
width: 100px; /* Set width of the animated element */
height: 100px; /* Set height of the animated element */
background: #33FFFF; /* Set background color */
position: relative; /* Set position property to relative */
-webkit-animation: move 5s infinite; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */ /* Apply animation to the element for Webkit browsers */
-webkit-animation-delay: 5s; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */ /* Delay the start of the animation for Webkit browsers */
animation: move 5s infinite; /* Apply animation to the element */
animation-duration: alternate, reverse, normal; /* Set animation duration */
}
/* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
@-webkit-keyframes mymove { /* Define keyframes for the animation in Webkit browsers */
    from {top: 0px;} /* Set initial state */
    to {top: 200px;} /* Set final state */
}
@keyframes mymove { /* Define keyframes for the animation */
    from {top: 0px;} /* Set initial state */
    to {top: 200px;} /* Set final state */
}
</style>
</body>
</html>

Explanation:

The HTML document contains a container div with a class of "animation" and a child div with a class of "w3r" for text content.
CSS is used to style the elements, setting their colors, sizes, and positioning.
Animation is applied to the div elements using keyframes (@keyframes mymove) to define the animation behavior.
The animation-duration property is used to specify the duration of the animation. The value "alternate" makes the animation reverse direction on every cycle, "reverse" makes the animation play in reverse, and "normal" makes it play in the default direction.
