What is the purpose of a radio button?
Solution
A radio button or option button is a graphical control element that allows the user choose only
one of a predefined set of options.
Radio buttons are arranged in groups of two or more and displayed on screen as, for example, a
list of circular holes that can contain white space(for unselected) or a dot(for selected). Each
radio button is normally accompanied by a label desribing the choice that the radio button
represents. the choices are mutually exclusive, when the user selects a radio button, any
previously selected radio button in the same group becomes deselected. selecting a radio button
is done by clicking the mouse on the button, or the caption, or by using a keyboard shortcut.
With a radio button,users make a choice among a set of mutually exclusive, related options.
Users can choose one and only one option. Radio buttons are so called because they function like
the channel presets on radios.
A typical group of radio buttons.
A group of radio buttons behaves like a single control. Only the selecteed choice is accesible
using the Tab key, but users can cycle through the group using the arrow keys.
