What is typescript & Its features ?

Define Typescript:- TypeScript (TS) is an open source programming language developed by Microsoft. Typescript is a superset of JavaScript which primarily provides optional static typing, classes and interfaces. What is the different static and dynamic typing? Static typing:- It's all about the variables. In statically typed program languages, if I create an integer, I have to tell the compiler that it is an integer and will always be an integer. Dynamic typing:- In dynamic languages, you don't specify the type and you can dynamically change the type. For example, to declare a variable in Javascript, you would type var bar; .

What is the difference between ViewData and ViewBag?

1:-ViewData ViewData is a dictionary of objects that is derived from ViewDataDictionary class and accessible using strings as keys.  ViewData requires typecasting for complex data type and check for null values to avoid error Example:- public ActionResult Index() {        ViewData["Name"] = "Dhiren Web developer";       return View(); } 2:-ViewBag ViewBag is a dynamic property that takes advantage of the new dynamic features in C# 4.0.  ViewBag doesn’t require typecasting for complex data type. Example:-   public ActionResult Index()   {      ViewBag.Name = "Dhiren Web developer";      return View();    } Calling in View @ViewBag.Name @ViewData["Name"] Hope you like it. Stay tuned for more..
