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 });             }            

How to bind DropDownlist using Xml file in ASP.NET

XML File Introduction

XML file is a text file. basically XML file is used for carry data.
Features of XML file
1. Its a Case sensitive language.
2. Use User defined tags
3. Used for communication purpose
4. Its not a presentation language .
5. Same as HTML language.
6. Use Tree based architecture

The DropDownList control displays the list of data as a drop-down list from which you can make a single selection. The DropDownList control exists within the System.Web.UI.WebControls namespace. You cannot select multiple items in this control because when you make a selection from the list, the list closes automatically.
The DropDownList control has no non-inherited methods or events. This class inherited the ListControl class.

Public Properties of DropDownList Class

SelectedIndex : Obtains or sets the index of the selected item in the control.

Application of DropDownList Control


  • In Registration page where you can select your country in given DropDownList.
  • In management project where you can select single option in given options.

Lets take an simple example to bind DropdownList 

Step-1. Create a XML file with <Countries> tag.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Countries>
  <country>
    <countryId>101</countryId>
    <countryName>USA</countryName>
   
  </country>
  <country>
    <countryId>102</countryId>
    <countryName>India</countryName>

  </country>

  <country>
    <countryId>103</countryId>
    <countryName>UK</countryName>

  </country
 
 
</Countries>


Step-2 : Drag one DropdownList from ToolBox and Drop to design window.
Step-3 : Create a DataSet instance 
Step-4 : Read XML file by ReadXML() method
Step-5 :Bind DropdownList with DataSet Instance.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Data;

public partial class Default3 : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        DataSet ds = new DataSet();
      
        ds.ReadXml(Server.MapPath("countries.xml"));
        DropDownList1.DataSource = ds;
        DropDownList1.DataTextField = "countryName";
        DropDownList1.DataValueField = "countryId";
        DropDownList1.DataBind();
       

    }

}
Output

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
