Exercises

1. Create a project with a text box, a button, and a label control. When the user clicks the button, move the contents of the text box to a variable, and then move the contents of the variable to the Text property of the label. (Hint: a string variable will do the trick.)

2. Rewrite the following code so that a single array variable is used rather than two standard variables . (Hint: Do not use a multidimensional array.)
