Solution:

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html><!-- Specifies the document type and version of HTML -->
<html>
<head>
<title> How to set the cursor so that it indicates a bidirectional resize cursor using nwse-resize</title><!-- Sets the title of the HTML document -->
</head>
<style class="text/css"> /* Begins the CSS styling block */
span{ /* Selects all <span> elements */
 cursor:nwse-resize; /* Sets the cursor to indicate a bidirectional resize cursor */
 }
</style><!-- Ends the CSS styling block -->
<body>
<span>Mouse over this to view</span><!-- Creates a <span> element with text -->
</body>
</html>

Explanation:

This HTML document sets the cursor style for a <span> element to nwse-resize using CSS.
When the user hovers over the <span> element, the cursor will change to indicate a bidirectional resize cursor.
