Controls and Data Binding
What is it?
Text boxes, labels, lists, buttons, and other controls may be bound to fields, calculated, or unbound.
In simple words
- Text boxes, labels, lists, buttons, and other controls may be bound to fields, calculated, or unbound.
- Working method: first identify the input or starting state for controls and data binding; then apply the rule or process in a clear order; finally inspect the output, test an edge case, and explain any limitation.
- Example: apply controls and data binding to a small school, home, or software problem and trace the result.
