How to use Tabs in ASP.NET CORE

I want to show Components in a tabs , so first of all create few components. In this project we have three components, First View Component  public class AllViewComponent : ViewComponent     {         private readonly UserManager<ApplicationUser> _userManager;         public AllViewComponent(UserManager<ApplicationUser> userManager)         {             _userManager = userManager;         }         public async Task<IViewComponentResult> InvokeAsync()         {             List<StudentViewModel> allUsers = new List<StudentViewModel>();             var items = await _userManager.Users.ToListAsync();             foreach (var item in items)             {                 allUsers.Add(new StudentViewModel {Id=item.Id, EnrollmentNo = item.EnrollmentNo, FatherName = item.FatherName, Name = item.Name, Age = item.Age, Birthdate = item.Birthdate, Address = item.Address, Gender = item.Gender, Email = item.Email });             }            

Validating Input Controls in windows forms C#

Data entered by user, should be valid and properly formatted, Otherwise a lot of resources could be wasted in fixing the problems that could be arise due to incorrect data format. Data should be properly checked according to the input criteria. Windows forms provides some ways to validate input in your application.

Masked TextBox Validation

We often requires some data like contact number in a well-defined format and also correct no of digits. This problem can easily be solved by using MaskedTextBox in windows forms. MaskedTextBox displays some formats to the user. If user types a wrong entry then this textbox automatically reject that input.

Just add a MaskedTextBox control and look out the mask property. There are approx. 9 predefined masks such as Phone number, zip code, Numeric digits etc. as in following screenshot:
Mask options of Masked TextBox in windows forms

There is no mask for mobile no in the above masks, so we have to create a new mask. Use the last mask i.e. custom mask and insert ten zero’s in the mask textbox just below the list of mask because mobile no is of ten digits, and our new mask has been created.

Event-Driven Validation

Each input control has a Validating event that occur whenever the control requires data validation. Validating event enables you to prevent from shifting focus from the control being validated to another control until validation has been completed.

To check whether the textbox is blank or not, we will simply check this by using the following line of codes in validating event of textbox in C# language.
private void textBox1_Validating(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
{
if (textBox1.Text == string.Empty)
{
MessageBox.Show("Textbox is empty");
}
}

Just like above code we can validate any other control using some lines of code. There is an argument e of type CancelEventArgs, which can be used to cancel the validating event if required input has been entered by user.
Displaying message when validating the textbox

As in above screenshot if the textbox left empty by the user then a message has been displayed written above. This message can be displayed by any of the message box, status strip etc.

Polynomial representation using Linked List for Data Structure in 'C'

Polynomial representation using Linked List The linked list can be used to represent a polynomial of any degree. Simply the information field is changed according to the number of variables used in the polynomial. If a single variable is used in the polynomial the information field of the node contains two parts: one for coefficient of variable and the other for degree of variable. Let us consider an example to represent a polynomial using linked list as follows: Polynomial:      3x 3 -4x 2 +2x-9 Linked List: In the above linked list, the external pointer ‘ROOT’ point to the first node of the linked list. The first node of the linked list contains the information about the variable with the highest degree. The first node points to the next node with next lowest degree of the variable. Representation of a polynomial using the linked list is beneficial when the operations on the polynomial like addition and subtractions are performed. The resulting polynomial can also

Memory representation of Linked List Data Structures in C Language

                                 Memory representation of Linked List              In memory the linked list is stored in scattered cells (locations).The memory for each node is allocated dynamically means as and when required. So the Linked List can increase as per the user wish and the size is not fixed, it can vary.                Suppose first node of linked list is allocated with an address 1008. Its graphical representation looks like the figure shown below:       Suppose next node is allocated at an address 506, so the list becomes,   Suppose next node is allocated with an address with an address 10,s the list become, The other way to represent the linked list is as shown below:  In the above representation the data stored in the linked list is “INDIA”, the information part of each node contains one character. The external pointer root points to first node’s address 1005. The link part of the node containing information I contains 1007, the address of
