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 });             }            

Edit menu bar with cut copy and paste operations in Windows Form C#

Introduction

In this article i will show you how to do cut copy and paste operation on text which is entered in the TextBox. I will give you an example of it. It is impossible for one, specially a Programmer, to imagine his/her life without editing. Editing operations (Cut/Copy and paste etc.) are performed using clipboard, so these are also called Clipboard operation.


Invention

Larry Tesler, who invented Cut/Copy and paste in 1973. He is a computer scientist, working in the field of human-computer interaction. Tesler has worked at Xerox PARC, Apple Computer, Amazon.com and Yahoo! We can find out more about LarryTesler.

In this article I will show how to perform these operations with our own code. As we are just doing editing operations, it doesn't matter which control we are using. Here I am using two textboxes to perform this operation. I created a simple window form with a menu strip and two textboxes. In the menu strip all the operations are added in Edit menu item as shown in below screenshot.



Generate the click event of above three menu items. 
Copy

We are going to copy the selected text of textbox, so we use SelectedText property of textbox. To copy the data in clipboard there is a method in Clipboard class i.e. SetData(), which will clear the clipboard and then add new data in specified format to clipboard.

private void copyToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
      TextBox txtBox = this.ActiveControl as TextBox;
      if (txtBox.SelectedText != string.Empty)
         Clipboard.SetData(DataFormats.Text, txtBox.SelectedText);
Cut

Actually, cut operation is a combination of copying and removing that text from that location. So we will copy the text and empty that string after that.

private void cutToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    TextBox txtBox = this.ActiveControl as TextBox;
    if (txtBox.SelectedText != string.Empty)
       Clipboard.SetData(DataFormats.Text, txtBox.SelectedText);
    txtBox.SelectedText = string.Empty;
Paste


To insert clipboard data to current location is called paste. We can perform a paste operation multiple times with a single clipboard data. To paste the data from clipboard there is a method in Clipboard class i.e. GetText(). First we get actual position of cursor in the textbox and then insert the data to that position using Insert() method as in above code.

private void pasteToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    int position = ((TextBox)this.ActiveControl).SelectionStart;
    this.ActiveControl.Text = this.ActiveControl.Text.Insert(position, Clipboard.GetText());
}

Insert() is a method of string class, which return a string in which a specified string is inserted at a specified position. So that is how we perform editing operations with our own code. The same procedure can be used to perform these operation in other controls of windows forms.

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
