Here you can learn how to pass data from controller to view using view data.
View Data:
• ViewData is similar to ViewBag, it transfers data from Controller to View.
• ViewData is of Dictionary type and ViewBag is of dynamic type.
• So, both store data in the same dictionary internally.
• ViewData is a dictionary, so it contains key-value pairs where each key must be a string.
