- AngularJS provides $parse service to evaluate expression.
- In a template AngularJS expression are presented in {{ }}.AngularJS uses $parse under the hood to compile link and display the value in the browser.
- $parse() method returns a function for the given expression context.The value of the context can be changes using assign() method.
- In this demo, "We will explore $parse method by using a simple example".
- Below code has code for this demo.Assignment of context can be done in two different way.approach 1 is about using assign() method to change the context value. approach 2 is using the direct $parse method which return a function to handle the context object.(JSBIN)

var getName = $parse('name'),
setName = getName.assign;
$scope.parseAgain = function() {
$scope.studName = setName($scope, $scope.inName);
};
//appraoch 2 :using getter method
var getSubject = $parse('subject');

$scope.parseOtherWay = function() {
$scope.subjectName = getSubject({
