BTo trigger a one-time action when clicked
CTo display static text on the plot

    Sliders let users change values smoothly and continuously, affecting the plot dynamically.

    Buttons trigger actions on click, not continuous changes; text display and saving are unrelated.

    To allow continuous adjustment of plot parameters interactively -> Option D

  4. Quick Check:

    Sliders = continuous value change [OK]
Quick Trick: Sliders adjust values smoothly; buttons act on clicks [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Confusing sliders with buttons
  • Thinking sliders trigger one-time actions
  • Assuming sliders display text
